Contro [English translation]

Against rifles, tanks and bombs,

against military juntas and tombs,

against the sky that's already full

of so many nuclear weapons

against all powerful leaders who aren't unaware [of this].

Against the Sabra and Shatila massacre1

against the insane immolations of the IRA,

against unfair sanctions, American crusades

for all the people who suffer and starve.

Against those who oppress people with fire

against those who are in command and run the game

against those who talk about brotherhood, love and freedom

and then fund wars and atrocities.

Against racism in South Africa,

against the right wing of the Israeli government

against mass murderers2 who haven't paid the price for their crimes yet

for all the people who are fed up and want to know the truth.

Against every kind of intolerance

against those who crush all hopes

against old fundamentalism and new imperialism

against the limited memory of history.

Against those who make others believe war is a duty

against those who want supremacy and power

against all badges of honor and sanctity

for all the people who cry: Freedom!
