A Rub escritor

Alma de mi gente boricua, alma de mi pueblo atormentado, alma de corazones con amor del bueno que aman más allá de lo que puede el alma…

Sin ti, la mía se desangra; y rechazo el amor del que dice te ama pues son corazones vacíos que sólo su poderío avanzan…

Dulzura de un pueblo que en sus ojos clama que no hay amor como el que mi gente derrama; pues, boricua, nacisteis para darte y nadie puede traicionar tu espalda…

Pueblo bueno, aquí y allá, nadie te supera en nobleza nadie te supera en belleza y te das hasta el dolor y el darte te levantas...

Pueblo mío, aunque pasas otro calvario sé que de todo renaces y que no hay en el mundo martillo que tu Yunque hunda y deshaga...

Si Dios de nuevo el mundo inventara, no podría rehacerse, pues no tendría semillas para sembrar de nuevo tu alma…

Nothing and

To Ruben Rosario, w

Soul of my Puerto Rican people, soul of my tormented people, soul of hearts with love of the good kind who love beyond what the soul can find…

Without you, mine bleeds to forget; and rejects those who just proclaim , for they are empty hearts that only their might advance…

Good citizens, here and there, no one surpasses you in nobility no one beats you in beauty no one your star will diminish

My people, although you go through ordeals I know that you will be reborn from everything and that there is no hammer in the world to break your Yunque and its soul forever....

If God would invent the world again, we could not be remade, He wouldn't have seeds left? to sow your soul again
