Father, can you hear the tolling of the bells Echo a hundred thousand sons who wish you well? Tears will pour from the Golden Eagle now He watches as your soul departs The fields and the sanctuaries soon will overflow With the solidarity of hearts
Into our lives you came With us you will remain You were given to the fight To the terror of the night And the many crimes of Cain
Gravely the Black Madonna walks the winter streets Bright are the many flowers strewn about her feet Strong is the spirit of a people scorned Their freedom is a gift of God Sweet are the children who hold the legacy Of the solidarity of Hearts
Into our lives you came With us you will remain Oh, forgive us all our trespasses And we will forgive The many crimes of Cain The many crimes of Cain
