La página de sucesos
del Mercurio y La Estafeta,
entre dietas para obesos,
chismes y falsos profetas,
confirmaba que sin besos
se marchitan las violetas.
Maldigo del alto cielo
que nos expropió su canto,
sus décimas, su pañuelo,
su quinchamalí, su llanto,
viola de chicha y pomelo,
cacerolas del espanto.
Habráse visto insolencia,
cinismo y alevosía,
contaminan la decencia,
secuestran la fantasía,
cuando clama la inocencia
llaman a la policía.
Lo dijo Violeta Parra,
hermana de Nicanor,
por suerte tengo guitarra
y sin presumir de voz,
si me invitan a una farra
cuenten con mi corazón.
Volaron desde Chicago
unos gringos con corbata
y en una suite de Santiago,
sin pisar Chuquicamata,
defecaron en mi pago,
sobraban las serenatas.
Más sola que una maleta
olvidada en la Gran Vía,
desde que se fue Violeta
enlutando la poesía,
se ensañan con los poetas
las faltas de ortografía.
La cuequita de mi Chile,
los listos de Guasingtón,
la marchitan con fusiles
que acribillan la razón,
malaya sean los desfiles
y el cristo que los fundó.
Los pobres no somos ricos
ni el cobre es más que la greda,
la libertad cierra el pico
desde que hay toque de queda,
pregúntale a los milicos
qué hicieron en La Moneda.
Joaquín Sabina (born Joaquín Ramón Martínez Sabina on July 15, 1949 in Úbeda, Spain) is one of the most influential and beloved singer-songwriters in Latin music. Known for his incisive poetry, catchy melodies, and raspy voice, Sabina has captivated a vast audience throughout Latin America and the Spanish-speaking world. His musical journey began in the 1960s with experiences in rock bands and Spanish singer-songwriters. In 1975, he released his debut album, "Inventario", which introduced him to the Spanish public. Over the following years, Sabina solidified his fame with albums such as "Malas compañías" (1982), "19 días y 500 noches" (1984) and "El viaje" (1989). His songs often address social, political, and personal themes, always with a touch of irony and sarcasm. Sabina is known for his collaborations with other artists such as Joan Manuel Serrat, Fito Páez, and Miguel Ríos. Some of his most famous songs include "Y nos dieron las diez", "La Mandrágora", "Contigo" and "Pajarita de papel".
