Pobre de mi pueblo enano
con la fe de un continente
fuimos bien encomendados
con un garrote en la frente
Pobre de nuestro legado
que nos hace indiferentes
tres millones de indigentes
analfabetos y hermanos
¿Quién nos comerá la gloria?
¿quién desatará el verano?
¿cuándo alzaremos la frente, quisqueyanos?
Pobre de mi pueblo enano
en contra de la corriente
pero un pueblo de valientes
nos salva sólo el trabajo
¡Oye!
[Improv.]
Si de aquí saliera petróleo
como sale de Kuwait
qué bendición, mi compai
destilaría mi dolor
para mojar mi ilusión
Si de aquí saliera petróleo
pero sonaran techos y escuelas
sin hambre ni enfermedad
pero por más que te exprimo
oh, mi panita, no sale na(da)
Si de aquí saliera petróleo
pero que hubiera luz y esperanza
sin visa para soñar
pero es que la providencia
ay, cuando no quiere, no da
Si de aquí saliera petróleo
hipotecara el silencio
para decir la verdad
pero por más que te exprimo
oye, mamacita, no sale ná
Mira qué cosa...
Sugerencias:
Y si aquí
en vez de cemento
pa(ra) la construcción
le hiciéramos un faro
a la educación
Y si aquí
lucháramos juntos
por la sociedad
y habláramos menos
resolviendo más
Resolviendo más
pudiera cambiar
Borráramos el sucio
(y si aquí)
de la corrupción
sembrando banderas
en el corazón
Y si aquí
cantáramos patria
en cada rincón
sería Quisqueya
un país mejor
¡Pa(ra)-rriba esa bandera!
un país mejor
Juan Luis Guerra Seijas, born in Santo Domingo on June 7, 1956, is a Dominican singer, musician, and composer considered one of the leading figures in Latin American music. Guerra has managed to blend traditional elements of Dominican music, such as merengue and bachata, with jazz and pop influences, creating an original sound he calls "mamborengue". His lyrics, often inspired by Christian faith and love for his homeland, are characterized by a touch of humor and irony. His musical career began in the 1970s with the group 440, but it was from the 1980s onwards that he achieved international fame thanks to albums like "Privé" (1985) and "Ojalá" (1992). Throughout his long career, Guerra has won 18 Grammy Awards in the Latin music category, solidifying his status as a legendary artist. Among his most famous songs are "Añoro tu presencia", "Visa para un sueño", "La bili" and "Bachata en Fukuoka".
