Yellow Triangle

Christy Moore

Originale

La versione della poesia in lingua galega (galiziana)

YELLOW TRIANGLE Black triangle, pink triangle, green triangle, red triangle, blue triangle, lilac triangle, And they wore the yellow triangle. When first they came for the criminals, I did not speak. Then they began to take the Jews, When they fetched the people who were members of trade unions, I did not speak. When they took the Bible students, Rounded up the homosexuals, Then they gathered up the immigrants and the gypsies, I did not speak. Eventually they came for me And there was no one left to speak.

CANDO OS NAZIS VIÑERON BUSCAR AOS COMUNISTAS Cando os nazis viñeron buscar aos comunistas, gardei silencio, porque eu non era comunista, Cando encarceraron aos socialdemócratas, gardei silencio, porque eu non era socialdemócrata, Cando viñeron buscar aos sindicalistas, non protestei, porque eu non era sindicalista, Cando viñeron buscar aos xudeus, non protestei, porque eu non era xudeu, Cando viñeron buscarme a min, non había ninguén máis que puidese protestar.
