***Verse 1.
Sandinista, you can hold your head up high
You have given back their freedom
You have lived up to your name
Sandinista, may your spirit never die
Hold a candle to the darkness
You're the keeper of the flame
***Verse 2.
Sandinista, keep believing in the dream
The truth is stronger than the shadows
Keep it shining in your eyes
Sandinista, may the soldiers disappear
May your children live forever
May their laughter fill your lives
(Spoken)
Sandinista, las fuerzas de la oscuridad
Nunca pueden distinguir la puridad
de tu llama revolutionaria
Con su terror y sus mentiras
Con su dinero y sus maquinas
La Libertad en tus ojos
El amor caliente en tu corazon
Son fuerzas mas poderosas
Que las armas de la guerra
***Repeat Verse 1.
