Real
name ERNESTO GUEVARA (1928-67), Latin American guerrilla leader
and revolutionary theorist, who became a hero to the New Left
radicals of the 1960s. Born into a middle-class family in
Rosario, Argentina, Guevara received a medical degree from
the University of Buenos Aires in 1953. Convinced that revolution
was the only remedy for Latin America's social inequities,
in 1954 he went to Mexico, where he joined exiled Cuban revolutionaries
under Fidel Castro.
In the late 1950s, he played an important role in Castro's
guerrilla war against Cuban dictator Fulgencio
Batista, and when Castro came to power, he served
as Cuba's minister of industry (1961-65). |
| A
strong opponent of U.S. influence in the Third World, he helped
guide the Castro regime on its leftward and pro-Communist path.
The author of two books on guerrilla warfare, Guevara advocated
peasant-based revolutionary movements in the developing world.
He disappeared from Cuba in 1965, reappearing the following
year as an insurgent leader in Bolivia. He was captured by the
Bolivian army and shot near Vallegrande on Oct. 9, 1967. |

Aprendimos
a quererte
Desde la historica altura
Donde el sol de tu bravura
Le puso un cerco a la muerte
Aquí se queda la clara
La entrañable transparencia
De tu querida presencia

Vienes quemando la brisa
Con soles de primavera
Para plantar la bandera
Con la luz de tu sonrisa
Aquí se queda la clara
La entrañable transparencia
De tu querida presencia

Como revolucionario
Que conducía nueva empresa
Donde espera la firmesa
De tu brazo libertario
Aquí se queda la clara
La entrañable transparencia
De tu querida presencia

Seguiremos adelante
Como junto a tí seguimos
Y con Fidel te decimos
Hasta siempre Comandante
Aquí se queda la clara
La entrañable transparencia
De tu querida presencia

Che: " Esa hora irá creciendo cada día
que pase,
esa
hora ya no prará más".
