Marc Ribot
The Militant Ecologist (based on Fischia Il Vento)
The wind, it howls
The storm outside is raging
Shoes are broken
Still we must go on

Before we fight
So long for our liberty
Just the possibility
Of the future

And on the prowl, the militant ecologist
Like the shadow emerges from the night

Stars above
Guide her on her mission
Strong her heart
Swift to armed struggle

If by chance cruel death will find you
Know your comrades will avenge you
We'll track down the ones who hurt you
Their fate's already sealed

The wind is still
The storm is finally over
And the militant ecologist
Fades back in to the shadows
Somewhere above
The earth's green flag is flying
To have to live and tell

Somewhere above
The earth's green flag is flying
The only flag that matters now

Somewhere aboe
The earth's green flag is flying
And if it's not
There's nothing more to say
