Aprendimos a quererte
Desde la historica altura
Donde el sol de tu bravura
Le puso cerca la muerte
Aqui se queda la clara,
La entranable transparencia
De tu querida presencia
Comandante Che Guevara
Seguiremos adelante
Como junto a ti seguimos
Y con Fidel te decimos
“Hasta Siempre Comandante”
Aqui se queda la clara,
La entranable tranparencia
De tu querida presencia
Comandante Che Guevara

Hasta Siempre Comandante Che Guevara performed by Victor Jara & Compay Segundo.
The song was written by Carlos Puebla in 1965 and was a reply to Che Guevara’s Farewell Letter when he left Cuba.
[I am against all violence. Revolution should happen inside people’s mind. It is easy to fight the evil outside. If the revolution did not happened inside you, then you will soon become the evil.]
