Pobre de mi pueblo enano
con la fé de un continente
fuimos bien encomendados
con un garrote en la frente.
Pobre de nuestro legado
que nos hace indiferentes.
3 millones de indigentes
analfabetos y hermanos.
Quién nos comerá la gloria?
Quién desatará el verano?
Cuándo alzaremos la frente?
Quisqueianos.
Pobre de mi pueblo enano
en contra de la corriente
pero un pueblo de valientes
nos salva sólo el trabajo.
Si de aquí saliera petróleo,
como sale de Kuwait
Si de aquí saliera petróleo,
qué bendición mi compai
Si de aquí saliera petróleo,destilaría mi dolor
Si de aquí saliera petróleo,
para mojar mi ilusión
Si de aquí saliera petróleo,
pero sobraran techos y escuelas
Si de aquí saliera petróleo,
sin hambre ni enfermedad
Si de aquí saliera petróleo,
pero por más que te exprimo
Si de aquí saliera petróleo,
mi panita no sale ná.
Si de aquí saliera petróleo,
pero que hubiera luz y esperanza
Si de aquí saliera petróleo,
sin visa para soñar
Si de aquí saliera petróleo,
pero es que la providencia
Si de aquí saliera petróleo,
cuando no quiere no da
Si de aquí saliera petróleo,
hipotecara el silencio
Si de aquí saliera petróleo,
para, para decir, decir la verdad
Si de aquí saliera petróleo,
pero por más que te exprimo. Oye¡
Si de aquí saliera petróleo,
mamasita no sale ná.
Sugerencias...
Y si aquí...
en vez de cemento
Y si aquí...
pá la construcción
Y si aquí...
le hiciéramos un faro
Y si aquí...
a la educación
Y si aquí...
lucháramos juntos
Y si aquí...
por la sociedad
Y si aquí...
y habláramos menos
Y si aquí...
resolviendo más.
Resolviendo más,
todo irá a cambiar (bis)
Borráramos el sucio
Y si aquí...
de la corrupción
Y si aquí...
sembrando banderas
Y si aquí...
en el corazón
Y si aquí...
cantáramos patria
Y si aquí...
en cada rincón
Y si aquí...
sería Quisqueria
Y si aquí...
un país mejor.
Un pais mejor,
un país mejor. (bis)
The lyrics SI SALIERA PETRÓLEO of JUAN LUIS GUERRA is also present in the album Areíto (1992)
Juan Luis Guerra Seijas, nato a Santo Domingo il 7 giugno 1956, è un cantante, musicista e compositore dominicano considerato uno dei principali esponenti della musica latinoamericana. Guerra ha saputo fondere elementi tradizionali della musica dominicana, come il merengue e la bachata, con influenze jazzistiche e pop, creando un sound originale che ha definito "mamborengue". I suoi testi, spesso ispirati alla fede cristiana e all'amore per la sua terra natale, sono caratterizzati da una vena di umorismo e ironia. La sua carriera musicale è iniziata negli anni '70 con il gruppo 440, ma è a partire dagli anni '80 che ha raggiunto fama internazionale grazie a album come "Privé" (1985) e "Ojalá" (1992). Nel corso della sua lunga carriera, Guerra ha vinto 18 Grammy Award nel genere musica latina, consolidando il suo status di artista leggendario. Tra i suoi brani più famosi ricordiamo "Añoro tu presencia", "Visa para un sueño", "La bili" e "Bachata en Fukuoka".

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
