Mil bendiciones mi gente de Hive, 3speak y discord, hoy les traigo el tema Guitarra, del Poeta Nicolás Guillén, quien es uno de los máximos exponentes de la Poesía Afrocubana en toda Hispanoamérica. Me encanta su poesía y desde mi época de bachiller por los años 1976 había en Caracas, un movimiento interesante con el auge de la Nueva Canción, temas de Silvio Rodríguez, Pablo Milanes, Alí Primera, musicalizaciones del Maestro Guillén, entre otros, eran mis preferidos… Para ese entonces, estudiaba en el liceo Luis Ezpelosin, cantaba acompañada por mi guitarra en todos los eventos culturales, siendo estos organizados por el Consejo de Estudiantes y afines, eran tiempos de cambios, trascendentales que marcaron mi vida estableciendo un antes y un después como adolescente.
En aquel tiempo, éramos un grupo de estudiantes guiados por mi Profesor de Matemática Jesús González, nos reuníamos para hacer análisis desde lo social hasta paseos para contemplar la naturaleza, siempre nos llevó de la mano hacia una ideología clara y concreta de pensamiento de ser original, participar en conversatorios desde el sentir de cada uno, él decía “si vas a lanzar una piedra, tienes que saber por qué lo haces”, desde allí asumo una nueva manera de ver las cosas y mi forma de lanzar piedras ha sido a través del canto, una forma de expresar, compartir y llegarle a las masas, transformar la consciencia del individuo a través de las artes, el canto, la música, la poesía, el teatro, la gastronomía y mucho más…
Por otra parte, considero importante hacer una reseña de los cultores y artistas antes de interpretar sus canciones, y de esa manera, darle el crédito a quien bien lo merece, por tal motivo, es oportuno hablar hoy, de un hombre ejemplar de gran sensibilidad humana y mucho carácter como lo fue y siempre lo será Nicolás Guillén, Poeta, periodista, activista político y escritor cubano, nació el 10 de julio de 1902 en Camaguey (Cuba), falleció el 16 de julio de 1989 en la Habana (Cuba), es considerado el Poeta Nacional de Cuba.
La poesía de Nicolás Guillén establece una conexión con su herencia cultural desde lo africano a lo español y viceversa. A través de él se reivindicó la cultura negra dentro de los procesos de mestizaje y transculturación en su país, dio una nueva denominación al mismo llamado el “color cubano”, en consecuencia “mestizo” como rasgo distintivo en toda Latinoamérica.
Por otra parte, Nicolás presentó una influencia muy marcada de poetas, escritores e intelectuales españoles, ya que, por la década de los años 1936 vivió en España y justo se desarrollaba la Guerra Civil Española, eso lo lleva a conectarse con ese hecho socio-político-cultural, el cual lo lleva a escribir hasta ser reconocido desde esa herencia como uno de los poetas más destacados en el mundo entero.
El texto de Guillén es genuino, autóctono y original, hace un retrato de la poesía en su cotidianidad de su pueblo, enfocado en el arraigo por su tradición cultural y pensamiento político en defensa de su gentilicio que lo hacen reconocer como uno de los poetas más importantes de toda Hispanoamérica.
Por otra parte, Nicolás Guillén, dirigió la unión de Escritores y Artistas de Cuba y otras misiones diplomáticas, asimismo, recibe premios importantes como Stalin de la paz (1954), Premio Internacional Botev (1976), Premio Nacional de Literatura (1983), entre otros…
Guillén, hombre genuino, sencillo, radical y determinante, lo podemos notar en su Poesía, hoy les dejo para comprender un poco más, su pensamiento izquierdista la musicalización del Poema Guitarra, se trata de un poema de aproximadamente diez (10) estrofas, en forma de rima asonante y con una combinación de versos octosilábicos y hexasílabos. Por aquí les dejo la letra.
GUITARRA (Autor: Nicolás Guillén)
A Francisco Guillén
Tendida en la madrugada,
la firme guitarra espera
Voz de profunda madera
desesperada.
Su clamorosa cintura,
en la que el pueblo suspira,
preñada de son, estira
la carne dura.
Arde la guitarra sola,
mientras la luna se acaba,
arde libre de su esclava
bata de cola.
Dejó al borracho en su coche,
dejó el cabaret sombrío,
donde se muere de frío,
noche tras noche,
y alzó la cabeza fina,
universal y cubana,
sin opio, ni mariguana,
ni cocaína.
¡Venga la guitarra vieja,
nueva otra vez al castigo
con que la espera el amigo,
que no la deja!
Alta siempre, no caída,
traiga su risa y su llanto,
clave las uñas de amianto
sobre la vida.
Cógela tú, guitarrero,
límpiale de alcohol la boca,
y en esa guitarra toca
tu son entero.
El son del querer maduro,
tu son entero;
el del abierto futuro,
tu son entero;
el del pie por sobre el muro,
tu son entero. . .
y en esa guitarra, toca
tu son entero…
Espero sea del agrado de todos ustedes y una vez más me pueden seguir por mis redes sociales.

A thousand blessings my people from Hive, 3speak and discord, today I bring you the theme Guitar, by the Poet Nicolás Guillén, who is one of the greatest exponents of Afro-Cuban Poetry in all of Latin America. I love his poetry and since my high school days in 1976 there was an interesting movement in Caracas with the rise of the New Song, songs by Silvio Rodríguez, Pablo Milanes, Alí Primera, musicalizations by Maestro Guillén, among others, they were my preferred ... At that time, I was studying at the Luis Ezpelosin high school, I sang accompanied by my guitar in all cultural events, these being organized by the Student Council and the like, they were times of transcendental changes that marked my life by establishing a before and a later as a teenager.
At that time, we were a group of students led by my Mathematics Professor Jesús González, we met to do analysis from the social to walks to contemplate nature, he always led us by the hand towards a clear and concrete ideology of thought of being original , participate in conversations from the feelings of each one, he said "if you are going to throw a stone, you have to know why you do it", from there I assume a new way of seeing things and my way of throwing stones has been through of singing, a way of expressing, sharing and reaching the masses, transforming the consciousness of the individual through the arts, singing, music, poetry, theater, gastronomy and much more ...
On the other hand, I consider it important to make a review of the Cultists and artists before interpreting their songs, and in this way, give credit to those who deserve it, for this reason, it is appropriate to speak today, of an exemplary man of great sensitivity human and a lot of character as Nicolás Guillén was and always will be.
Nicolás Guillén, Poet, journalist, political activist and Cuban writer, was born on July 10, 1902 in Camaguey (Cuba), died on July 16, 1989 in Havana (Cuba), he is considered the National Poet of Cuba and maximum exponent of Afro-Cuban Poetry in Latin America.
Guillén's poetry establishes a connection with his cultural heritage from African to Spanish and vice versa. Through him the black culture was vindicated within the processes of miscegenation and transculturation in his country, he gave a new name to it called the "Cuban color", consequently "mestizo" as a distinctive feature throughout Latin America.
On the other hand, Nicolás had a very marked influence of Spanish poets, writers and intellectuals, since, by the decade of the 1936s he lived in Spain and the Spanish Civil War was just taking place, that leads him to connect with that socio-political fact. political-cultural, which leads him to write to be recognized from that heritage as one of the most prominent poets in the world.
Guillén's text is genuine, autochthonous and original, it makes a portrait of the poetry in his daily life of his people, focused on the roots of his cultural tradition and political thought in defense of his name that make him recognized as one of the most important poets. important throughout Latin America.
On the other hand, Nicolás Guillén, directed the Union of Writers and Artists of Cuba and other diplomatic missions, also receives important awards such as Stalin de la paz (1954), International Botev Prize (1976), National Literature Prize (1983), among others…
Nicolás Guillén, a genuine, simple, radical and decisive man, we can notice it in his Poetry, today I leave you to understand a little more, his leftist thought the musicalization of the Guitar Poem, it is a poem of approximately ten (10) stanzas, in the form of an assonance rhyme and with a combination of octosyllabic and hexasyllabic verses. Here is the letter.
GUITAR (Author: Nicolás Guillén)
To Francisco Guillén
Stretched out at dawn,
the firm guitar awaits
Deep wood voice
desperate.
His clamorous waist,
in which the people sigh,
pregnant with son, stretches
tough meat.
The guitar burns alone,
while the moon is ending,
burns free from his slave
bata de cola.
He left the drunkard in his car
left the gloomy cabaret,
where you freeze to death,
night after night,
and raised his fine head,
universal and Cuban,
no opium, no marijuana,
no cocaine.
Come on the old guitar,
new again to punishment
with what the friend waits for,
that does not leave her!
Always high, not falling,
bring your laughter and your crying,
nail asbestos nails
about life.
Take it, guitar maker,
clean his mouth of alcohol,
and on that guitar he plays
you are whole.
The sound of mature love,
you are whole;
the one of the open future,
you are whole;
the one with the foot over the wall,
you are whole. . .
and on that guitar, play
you are whole ...
I hope it is to the liking of all of you and once again you can follow me on my social networks.
