RAiXTA !
(Onomatopoeia of lighting a match)
lyrics by xabi makulu
​
To zarra ta ekatzan berriya
(Take the old and bring the new one)
Popular saying during summer solstice bonfire in Basque Country
​
Insatiable blood hunger for money
we, on the other hand, human resources, nothing more...
Nothing matters the excuse, always watchful.
A river uprooted is gain of fishermen
the economy of the entire planet
orbiting around their navels
take the match, strike it and raixta!
and burn Babylon, raixta!
cover it with fuel and raixta!
burn it willingly, raista!
in favor of the people, raixta!
without mercy, raixta!
take the match, strike it and raixta!
burn Babylon, burn it from the roots, until it balances…
​
Be watchful wing signal and raista… watchful...
and raista! and burn Babylon
favor of the people, burn "e reggae" (burn the king)
Sharpen the guillotines decapitate the hydra once and for all,
there aren't that many after all...
​
Babylon, do raixta! do raixta!
bang! bang! shoot the sheriff
and then say it was for money
and raixta and raixta and raixta…
​
