Ode to Leydy Pech, a bee keeper who led the movement to remove Monsanto's deadly grip from Mexican agriculture.

lyrics

In the fertile lands of Campeche Mexico
A Mayan woman named Leydy Pech transformed into the Queen
of Beekeepers, defying the grim reaper
Hiding behind Monsanto’s plans
To zone and to clone a moaning monoculture
To poison the magic land

It was the beekeepers who defied the grim reaper
Hiding behind Monsanto’s plans
To clone and to hone a devilish tone
In the heart of the honeycomb

Power to the pollinators!
Mother Father Earth Creators
Leydy Pech oh please
Let us love the bees ---------

She gathered el pueblo, the lawyers and the farmers,
the wise Mayan elders and the beekeepers’ daughters
Her love for life and defending the land
Fueled the fight and powered the witness stands
With the forces of nature coursing through their hands

Pollinate the Revolution!
Fertile thoughts to grow solutions
The bee connection, honey’d hands
Sustain our cultures and the lands ---------

So many brave souls quelled Monsanto’s monopoly, replacing
Mono with many, and poison with plenty
Now they’re feeding the forests, the fields are filled with local seed,
And those beloved bees fly all around as they please

It was the beekeepers who defied the grim reaper
Hiding behind Monsanto’s plans
To clone and to hone a devilish tone
In the heart of the honeycomb

Power to the pollinators!
Mother Father Earth Creators
Leydy Pech oh please
Let us love the bees ----- love the bees------- love the bees -----

En las fértiles tierras de Campeche,Mexico
Una mujer Maya, llamada Leydy Pech
Transformarse en la reina protectora de las abejas
Derrotando al espectro mortífero y su hoz
Que se ocultaba detrás
De los planes de Monsanto
Extendiendo y planificando un doliente monocultivo
para envenenar la tierra mágica

Fueron los protectores de abejas
que derrotaron al espectro
escondido detrás de los planes de Monsanto
De clonar y afilar
Un aspecto diabolico
En el centro del panal

Poder a los Polinizadores!
Madres, padres, de la tierra creadores
Leydy Pech,por favor
Dejanos dar, a las abejas amor—---------

Ella unió a la gente, abogados, campesinos
A los sabios ancianos y a las hijas de las abejas, cuidadoras

Su amor por la vida y defensa de la tierra
Mantuvieron la lucha, y fuerza a los testigos
Con la fuerza de la Naturaleza, a través de sus manos

¡Poliniza la evolución!
Fértiles pensamientos
Para acrecentar la solución
Sostiene nuestras tierras y cultura
Manos de miel
De la abeja conexión.

Muchas valientes almas suprimieron a Monsanto y su monopolio
sustituyendo “mono” con “muchos”
Y veneno con abundante vida
Hoy alimentamos los bosques
Y los campos con semillas nativas
Y esas abejas queridas
Vuelen alrededor a su gusto

Fueron los protectores de abejas
que derrotaron al espectro
escondido detrás de los planes de Monsanto
De clonar y afilar
Un aspecto diabolico
En el centro del panal
Poder a los Polinizadores!
Madres, padres, de la tierra creadores
Leydy Pech,por favor
Dejanos dar, a las abejas amor, a——a las abejas amor—-a las abejas amor.
