Bajo el puñal del invierno
murió en los campos la tarde
Con su tambor de desvelos
salió la luna a rezarle
Rezos en la noche blanca
tañen las arpas del aire
mientras le nacen violines
a los álamos del valle
Zamba de la luna llena
baila la noche en las calles
con su pañuelo de esquinas
y su ademán de saudades
Se emponchan de grises nieblas
los verdes cañaverales
y caminan los caminos
con su escolta de azahares
La noche llena de arpegios
la copa de los nogales;
el tamboril de la luna
cuelga su copla en el aire
Zamba de la luna llena
Baila la noche en las calles
con su pañuelo de esquinas
y su ademán de saudades
Mi corazón bate palmas
con las manos de mi sangre
mientras, cansada, la luna
se duerme sobre los valles.
The lyrics ROMANCE DE LA LUNA TUCUMANA of MERCEDES SOSA is also present in the album Cantora (2009)
Haydée Mercedes Sosa (1935-2009) è stata una cantante argentina, considerata un'icona della musica popolare latinoamericana. Nata a Tucumán, iniziò la sua carriera negli anni '60 cantando folk e canzoni tradizionali argentiniane. La sua voce potente e emozionante, insieme alla sua dedizione alla lotta per i diritti civili e la pace, la resero una figura di grande rilievo culturale e sociale in Argentina e nel mondo. Sosa si distinse per l'interpretazione di brani di cantautori come Atahualpa Yupanqui e Víctor Jara, ma compose anche alcune delle sue canzoni più famose, come "Gracias a la vida" e "Alfombra verde". Durante la dittatura militare argentina (1976-1983), Sosa si schierò apertamente contro il regime, esiliandosi in diverse nazioni. Tornata in Argentina dopo la caduta del regime, continuò a cantare fino alla sua morte nel 2009. Mercedes Sosa è ricordata come una voce potente e indimenticabile che ha ispirato generazioni di musicisti e attivisti.
