Текст песни: Fidel's Fantasy + перевод

Wake up, Fidel… wake up

It’s time for your fantasy, ha, ha, ha

Come back, Fidel

Come back to the time when your land was free and happy

Come back to love

There was a girl

Remember her name?

Remember Anna!

Remember her brown body and her hair black as the wing of a raven

Remember the nights in the sugar cane, Fidel… huh?

Where is Anna now, Fidel?

Where could she be now… your young lover

She’s not free, you’re not free, love is not free

Come back, Fidel… come back with me!

Remember when your brothers loved you and cheered

As you walked down the streets of the great city!

Where are your brothers now, Fidel?

In a friendly land to the north?

Why, that’s the greatest fantasy of all, Fidel

Are they really happy there, having left

Their homes and families… ha, ha, ha… Fidel?

They’re not free, your land’s not free, you’re not free

And what about the children, Fidel?

Do you remember their laughing faces… their running feet?

They liked for you to read to them… oh yes

Not from the thoughts of Mao

Or the writings of stodgy men

Like Lenin and Trotsky

But the fables of Aesop, Grimm, and Hans Christian Andersen

Yes, Fidel, they too have a flair for fantasy

But now that’s all that you have, Fidel… ha, ha, ha, haaaaaa

Oh, Fidel, you mustn’t wake up

Do you know what’s waiting for you in the world of reality?

Sleep is fleeting, Fidel

Your fantasy is ending… ha, ha, ha

I must go, Fidel

Good bye for now… ha, ha, ha, haaaaaaaaaa

Good bye, Fidel, good bye… ha, ha, ha, haaaaaaaaaaaaa
