Lyrics
Estrofa 1

Ya se mira el horizonte
Combatiente zapatista
El camino marcará
A los que vienen atrás
First Stanza

Now we can see the horizon
Zapatista combatant
The way will mark
Those that come after us

Vamos, vamos, vamos, vamos adelante
Para que salgamos en la lucha avante
Porque nuestra Patria grita y necesita
De todo el esfuerzo de los zapatistas

Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go forward!
To take part in the struggle ahead
Because our Fatherland cries out for and needs
All of the effort of the Zapatistas

El esfuerzo siempre haremos
