Muc hos estudiosos y cultivadores de la décima en Cuba, han manifestado que la estrofa ha sido expresión del a ndar histórico de lo cubano, primero en la imagen sonora de la naturaleza que invade las espinelas del siglo XIX, ahí están los octosílabos de Juan Cristóbal Nápoles Fajardo, El Cucalambé , mas luego será el guateque poblado de bass motion and controversies to draw everyday, up to the romantic chronicles of Jesus Orta Ruiz, the Indian Naborí to keep in memory the event and the signs of the first moments of triumphant Revolution, such emphasis is seen in the work of many singers lyric as evidenced by the poetic contribution of the best exponents Garcia family in Matanzas land.

Now we look at those days of April 1961, distant in time but close in the hearts and memories, we found that in the trenches Bay of Pigs was also the tenth against resistance to the invader, to emerge victorious in his first controversy against reaction and imperialism .

Limonar Thanks to the Municipal Museum, which opened its archives to us, we re-read a few tenths authored titled 72 hours of death, but written for life. Beyond the direct language with which they were made, they become profound document and printing of such a significant feat for the Cuban people.

Israel M. Miller described in the pages of Museum (March-May 1961) the glorious presence of Battalion 227, the second to enter Cienaga de Zapata on 17 April and the last to leave there, whose performance on the fence between Playa Girón and suckling was effective and decisive.

Now, 50 years after it was written, we return to the light, light always shaking the blank page, provided poetry alongside the poor, in these eight syllable of those young fighter Reinier days García Peña, now a prominent member of Association of Combatants, who goes through with the pen and the gun knowing that the struggle for Life is long, but full of triumphs and surprises.

72 HOURS OF DEATH

Bay of Pigs came and made the beach and began

the battle that cost many lives. Companions who fought

fighting the same evil companions

end of their struggle, in his agony

showed their rebellion against the gringo criminal.

rebels and militia joining the same fate were killed there
There were more Cuban
...
children, youth and seniors in advanced

fell and died while they
injured by bazookas
began the moans, groans of pain
heard.

But those same dead

bleeding wound that gave us courage, made us alive
as if being awake, covered patriotism


move restlessly move under fire from tanks and cannons

of mortars and aircraft
that many graves later.

the end reason prevailed

defeat injustice triumphed in the end the triumph of the Revolution
justice, oppression defeated

that between the coast and if you dare to beat
someday invade our land


the Andes can hear our people in absentia.

Cuba will host the world will witness the punishment will
all
that deserves a mercenary. The counter-punishment


Cuba will also give the world an example so resounding

beacon that will guide the world
world will be.

Criminal bastards murderers without a conscience


product impotence brutal U.S.. Here they found surprised

a traitor
people against the value found here
not found in other
" The country is for us
Death to the invader."

Reinier García Peña
(Juan G. Gomez, 1940)
