"Mothers of the Disappeared" is a song by Irish rock band U2. It is the eleventh and final track on their 1987 album The Joshua Tree. The song was inspired by lead singer Bono's experiences in Nicaragua and El Salvador in July 1986, following U2's participation in the Conspiracy of Hope tour of benefit concerts for Amnesty International. He learned of the Madres de Plaza de Mayo, a group of women whose children had "forcibly disappeared" at the hands of the Argentine and Chilean dictatorships. While in Central America, he met members of COMADRES, a similar organization whose children had been abducted by the government in El Salvador. Bono sympathized with the Madres and COMADRES and wanted to pay tribute to their cause.

  • «Mothers of the Disappeared» (с англ. — «Матери исчезнувших») — песня ирландской рок-группы U2, одиннадцатый и финальный трек из альбома The Joshua Tree. Песня была вдохновлена посещением фронтменом U2 Боно Никарагуа и Сальвадора в июле 1986 года после участия группы в благотворительном турне A Conspiracy of Hope, организованном Amnesty International. Музыкант узнал о Мадрес-де-Плаза-де-Майо — группе женщин, чьи дети «насильственно исчезли» при содействии аргентинской и чилийской диктатур. Находясь в Центральной Америке, он встретился с членами COMADRES — аналогичной организации, чьи дети были похищены с подачи правительства Сальвадора. Боно симпатизировал деятельности Мадрес и COMADRES и хотел придать её огласке. (ru)
