Revolution
Those who don't see call us blind but you have taught us to see the color of the coming times. Those who don't hear call us deaf but you have taught us to listen everywhere to the agile sound of human tenderness. Cowards call us cowards but with you we confront the shadows and change their faces. Criminals call us criminals, but with you we revive hope, putting an end to crime, prostitution, hunger. And we put eyes, voice, ears, soul on the heart of humanity. Racists call us antihuman but with you we give hatred its worldwide tomb in the city of embraces. They call us so many things, and those who pronounce them forget, stupid as they are, that tomorrow their grandchildren will jubilantly love the star-burst word of you name: revolution.
