December fourth Was a day we won't forget The same spirit raised against the oppression based in their lies this shiny day our people took the streets again reclaiming freedom, land and peace like we did too many times
Under the sun of our old land there's a people who always laugh
We’ve been conquered, subjugated Can you hear it? We’ve been controlled and put down - we never ceased to laugh Under control and dominated can you see it? we wanna see our dignity restored
Still asking for freedom Still asking for land we'll keep on fighting - we'll never cease to laugh TO LAUGH!
Thousands of years of history Through the Ocean and the Sea From the desert to the fields Tartessic roots, African taste We just wanna see our dignity restored.
under the sun of our old land there's a people who always laugh a spirit that remains
WE’RE STILL HERE We’ll keep on fighting WE’RE STILL HERE
"In december 4th of 1977 the people from Andalusia (South of the Spanish State) performed a big protest reclaiming more autonomy.That day the Spanish guard killed a man while he tried to hang an Andalusian flag in the Malaga city council. As Andalusians, we've seen how our culture, language and identity has been mistreated, ridiculed and denied since centuries, especially by the Spanish nationalism. Nevertheless, even oppressed, our people never forgot about laughing or spreading its particular optimistic way of living. We just want to show respect to our sociocultural identity and put it in the place it deserves"
