band from lyrics “The Tiger of the South“ Son of the sun, valiant warrior, against the treacherous, spanish foreigners. The Tiger of the South War march to Cuautla, against the golden fifth, attack! With rifle and sword, assault the capital, pistols fire, soldiers burned. The Tiger of the South In the name of the fatherland Long live Zapata! No prisoner was taken by either side. In the name of the fatherland Long live Zapata! The fifth cavalry regiment, retreated and Zapata took control of the city. Hero of our nation, rest in peace, my great general. There are things that I do not forgive, that is called treason. Fight for your land! Hero of our nation, rest in peace, my great general. The Tiger of the South “My General Zapata” At the foot of your grave, my General Zapata, in the name of the fatherland I offer you a flower. Brave guerrilla, blessed son of the people, my Mexico admires you and praises your courage. I also offer my song for your generals, those loyal men, brave like you. For them a rose, to you green laurels, to follow you faithfully, my great Chief of the South. Rest in peace under the sky that you loved, where your phrase lives of Land & Freedom! There by Chinameca, where they betrayed you, your blood is shining like a ray of the sun. And your name in the story, covered in glory, with tears of a people that honors you. Goodbye jealous mother, goodbye Cuautla, Morelos, the one that she keeps in her breasts to the son who loved her. Goodbye Don Emiliano, my General Zapata, on behalf of the Fatherland receive a white flower. Rest in peace, under the sky that you loved, where your phrase lives of Land & Freedom!
