Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Justicia by Attaque 77 from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Anda suelto un ladrón
A thief is on the loose
al que llaman 'señor'
the one they call 'Lord'
Y sale siempre en las noticias
And it's always in the news
Y que tiene todo lo que
And that it has everything that
a todos nos faltó
We all lacked
¿A esto le llaman justicia?
Is this called justice?
¿Justicia para quién?
Justice for whom?
Hoy en la estación vi a muchos chicos mendigar
Today at the station I saw many boys begging
y vi a la muerte en cada esquina
and I saw death on every corner
Pareciera un sueño, pero es una realidad
It seems like a dream, but it is a reality
¿A esto le llaman justicia?
Is this called justice?
¿Justicia para quién?

¿Y que va a hacer usted,
And what are you going to do,
Señor que es tan previsor
Lord who is so farsighted
con todos sus ahorros
with all your savings
y sus plantas de petróleo
and its oil plants
cuando descubra que
when you discover that
la muerte es para todos
Death is for everyone
y se de cuenta al fin
and realize at last
que nunca fue feliz?
who was never happy?
Nuestra ley castiga
Our law punishes
sin piedad al que robó
mercilessly from the one who stole
por mantener a su familia
for supporting his family
Pero indulta a aquellos
But it pardons those
que robaron la ilusión

¿A esto llaman justicia?
Do they call this justice?
¿Justicia para quien?
