En la Plaza de mi Pueblo ("In the square of my village") is a Spanish-language song originating during the Spanish Civil War of 1936–1939, and is usually attributed to the anarchist CNT-FAI, a prominent labour organization at the time which sent its own militias to fight alongside the Spanish Republican Army during the Civil War.
The melody is that of a Spanish folk song, "El Café de Chinitas," which in turn is attributed to (or, in some accounts, simply written down by) Federico García Lorca.
[1][2][3] En la plaza de mi pueblo dijo el jornalero al amo: "¡Nuestros hijos nacerán con el puño levantado!
"Y esta tierra, que no es mía, esta tierra, que es del amo, la riego con mi sudor la trabajo con mis manos.Pero dime, compañero, si estas tierras son del amo, ¿Por qué nunca le hemos visto trabajando en el arado?Con mi arado abro los surcos con mi arado escribo yo páginas sobre la tierra de miseria y de sudor.In the square of my village the laborer said to the master: "Our children will be born with their fists raised!"
