Despertar


Cuando en la quimera Se forge la idea El canto que nace Se hace pensamiento Entonces el cielo El hombre y su tiempo Transitan los surcos Del canto y el viento Y de la quimera Canto y pensamiento Naciendo el hombre Surco de su tiempo Y la noche queda Detrás de la aurora Entonces el cielo Se hace canto y viento La luz, la alborada Arrastan los sueños Y surgen banderas Que no tienen dueños América es una Morena y alegre Es voz y esperanza De los valles verdes Y tienen que guitarras Que tiemblan su grito Hecha de madera Curtida en sangre Quebracho de estirpe Que no tumbo a nadie Coplas, hijas, mimbres Lucha y azares El campo es amigo De arado y guitarra En cuerdas que llevan Sonidos y palabras Se pulsan tristezas Que son del invierno En muy poco tiempo Será primavera Es largo el camino Que tú has transitado El mío es más largo Después de lo andado Te pido la ayuda De tus pies descalzos Que han pisado espinas Hermano del campo Con sueños y harpas Que corren a la senda Surco de guaranias Semillas al viento Si sós de tu tiempo Hermano del campo Te pido la ayuda De tus pies descalzos Si américa es una Y su grito es campo Si arado y guitarra Te llevan ideas Dale tú la mano Tu voz de guarania Dale la plegaria De tu harpa y tu canto. ¡Viva Paraguay!

Biografia

Haydée Mercedes Sosa (1935-2009) was an Argentine singer, considered an icon of Latin American popular music. Born in Tucumán, she began her career in the 1960s singing folk and traditional Argentine songs. Her powerful and emotive voice, along with her dedication to the fight for civil rights and peace, made her a prominent cultural and social figure in Argentina and worldwide. Sosa distinguished herself by interpreting songs by songwriters like Atahualpa Yupanqui and Víctor Jara, but she also composed some of her most famous songs, such as "Gracias a la vida" and "Alfombra verde". During the Argentine military dictatorship (1976-1983), Sosa openly opposed the regime, going into exile in several countries. After the fall of the regime, she returned to Argentina and continued to sing until her death in 2009. Mercedes Sosa is remembered as a powerful and unforgettable voice that has inspired generations of musicians and activists.
