Milonga del moro judío [English translation]

Each wall means a lament

In Jerusalem, the Golden city

And a thousand wasted lives

Is what every commandment means

I am dust of your wind

And even if I bleed from your wound

And every dear rock

Keeps my deepest love

There's no rock in this world

That is worth for a life

chorus:

I am a Jewish Moor

That lives among Christians

I don't know which is my God

Neither which ones are my brothers

There's no death that doesn't make me sad

There's not a winner side

There's nothing but pain

And another life that's gone

War is a very bad school

It does not matter how they dress it

Forgive me if I don't join

To the service of anyone's flag

Any chimera is better

Than a sad piece of fabric

chorus

I never gave anyone the permission

To kill on my name

A man is nothing more than a man

And if there's a God, that's the way He wanted it

The ground on which I'm standing

Will last, I will be gone

And also there's not any doctrine

That doesn't go in the way to forgetfulness

And there's no people

That hasn't ever believed to be the chosen one
