“Ang Internasyunal” sa Lansangan ng Mendiola, Mayo 1, '23 ni Danny Fabel...

Mula sa description box:

(Medyo bitin ang bidyo sa simula’t pagtatapos, pero . . .) Ang Internasyunal Bangon sa pagkakabusabos Bangon alipin ng gutom Katarunga'y bulkang sasabog Sa huling paghuhukom Gapos ng kahapo'y lagutin Tayong api ay magbalikwas Tayo ngayo'y inaalipin Subalit atin ang bukas Koro: Ito'y huling ipaglalaban Magkaisa nang masaklaw Ng Internationale ang sangkatauhan (ulitin 2x) Wala tayong maasahang Bathala o manunubos, kaya ang ating kaligtasa'y nasa ating pagkilos Manggagawa bawiin ang yaman Kaisipa'y palayain Ang maso ay ating hawakan Kinabukasa'y pandayin Koro: Ito'y huling ipaglalaban Magkaisa nang masaklaw Ng Internationale ang sangkatauhan (ulitin 2x)

When Workers Work...

When carpenters work, they don't argue if God or which god prefers a hammer or pliers to hammer

that nail; they just use a hammer to hammer that nail.

When road construction workers work, they don't debate whether God or what god recommends concrete or hay for the highway; they just pour the concrete to pave the highway.

When agricultural workers work, they don't fight over what god or whose god commands the use of sickle or disposable razor blade to harvest rice; they just cut with the sickle to harvest rice.

We eat, travel, and live thanks to the workers who work and suffer under the few ungodly gods among us; providing us food, roads, and shelter that we may all eat, travel, work, and live.

In solidarity with USA workers, on their nation's Labor Day next month, September 7, 2015.
