Awaken

Originally in Quechua

Wake up! Children of the Incas, shout!
Turn your eyes this way with your head held high;
so we can be heard around the world.

The new day is beginning, The sun greets you, as a mother looking upon her children gathered below him.
Her sparkling light shines upon you as it had in the good times of our glorious Kingdom of Tawantinsuyu.
Upon you workers who have suffered too long!

Here it is! Our victorious day has arrived.
Obtained by the blood of our brave fighters,
who sacrificed their lives and were hung by their necks,
because they fought their exploiters in the past.

It is necessary to bring back the consciousness of our ancestors.
