3. What's Going On?
By Marvin Gaye
​
Mother, mother
There's too many of you crying
Brother, brother, brother
There's far too many of you dying
You know we've got to find a way
To bring some lovin' here today,
Father, father
We don't need to escalate
You see, war is not the answer
For only love can conquer hate
You know we've got to find a way
To bring some lovin' here today
Picket lines and picket signs
Don't punish me with brutality
Talk to me
So you can see
What's going on (What's going on)
What's going on (What's going on)
What's going on (What's going on)
What's going on (What's going on)
Mother, mother
Everybody thinks we're wrong
Oh, but who are they to judge us
Simply 'cause our hair is long
Oh, you know we've got to find a way
To bring some understanding here today
Picket lines and picket signs
Don't punish me with brutality
Come on talk to me
So you can see
What's going on (What's going on)
What's going on (What's going on)
Tell me what's going on (What's going on)
I'll tell you, what's going on (What's going on)

By Violeta Parra
[Sit back or sing along with this performance!]
​
TRANSLATION
Thank you to life, that has given me so much:
it gave me two bright stars, and when I open them
I can perfectly distinguish white from black
and in the high heavens, their starry depths
and among the multitudes, the man I love.
​
Thank you to life, that has given me so much:
it has given me my hearing, that in all its breadth
records night and day, crickets and canaries,
hammers, turbines, howls, and torrential rains,
and the tender voice of my beloved.
​
Thank you to life, that has given me so much:
it has given me sound, and the letters of the alphabet,
and with these the words that I think and declare:
mother, friend, brother, and light illuminating
the path of the soul that I am loving.
​
Thank you to life, that has given me so much:
it has given me the stride of my tired feet—
with them I have traversed cities and puddles,
beaches and deserts, mountains and plains,
your street, your house, and your doorstep.
​
Thank you to life, that has given me so much:
it gave me my heart, that shakes in its frame
when I look at the fruits of the human brain,
when I look at good, so distinct from evil,
when I look into the depths of your clear eyes.
​
Thank you to life, that has given me so much:
it has given me laughter and it has given me tears—
that’s how I can tell joy from agony,
the two materials that form my song,
and your song, which is the same song
and everyone’s song, which is my own song.
​
Thank you to life…
17. El pueblo unido jamás será vencido

El pueblo unido jamás será vencido,

TRANSLATION
The people united will never be defeated,
The people united will never be defeated...
​
Arise, sing
We are going to win.
Flags of unity are now advancing.
And you will come marching together with me,
and so you'll see your song and your flag blossom.
The light of a red dawn
already announces the life to come.
​
Arise, fight
the people are going to win.
The life to come will be better.
To conquer our happiness.
And a clamor of a thousand fighting voices will rise,
Speaking a song of freedom.
With determination the fatherland will win.
And now the people, who are rising in struggle
with a giant voice crying out: Forward!
​
The people united will never be defeated,
The people united will never be defeated...
​
The fatherland is forging unity,
from north to south they're mobilizing.
From the salt mines burning and mineral to the southern forests.
United in struggle and labor they go
Covering the fatherland.
Their steps already announce the future.
​
Arise, Sing
The people are going to win
Millions now are imposing the truth
Their steel battalions are on fire,
Taking in their hands justice and reason.
Woman with fire and courage
Is already here alongside the worker.
​
And now the people, who are rising in struggle
with a giant voice crying out: Forward!
​
The people united will never be defeated,
The people united will never be defeated...
