Daniel Viglietti (Daniel Alberto Viglietti Indart, Montevideo, Uruguay, 24 … Read Full Bio ↴Daniel Viglietti (Daniel Alberto Viglietti Indart, Montevideo, Uruguay, 24 July 1939 – 30 October 2017) was an Uruguayan folk singer, guitarist, composer, and political activist. He is one of the main exponents of Uruguayan popular song and also of the Nueva Canción of the 1960s and early 1970s.
He founded, in 1971, the recognized independent record label Ayuí/Tacuabé in order to promote and support valuable Uruguayan musical expressions, along with other musicians like José "Pepe" Guerra, Braulio López, Coriún Aharonián, Myriam Dibarboure, María Teresa Sande and Edgardo Bello,
He has performed the works of Cuban Nueva Trova stars Silvio Rodríguez and Pablo Milanés and Brazil's Chico Buarque and Edu Lobo and has worked with Cuban composer and arranger Leo Brouwer. His recordings are widely available, especially "Trópicos" (1972).
Viglietti was imprisoned in 1972 by his own government. He was supported by the likes of Jean-Paul Sartre as an international man of conscience, a voice for peace, and an opponent of the fascism and tyranny that plagued South America in the 1970s. Rumors about possible mistreatment against him forced the authorities to bring him out in front of television cameras to show that, in particular, his hands were fine. However, Viglietti spoke out that his treatment in police custody was much better than what other political prisoners received. He was a peer of the late Chilean poet and folk singer Victor Jara and composer and activist Violeta Parra.

Comienzo El Día
Daniel Viglietti Lyrics
Es tan temprano y tu ya me despiertas
No me dejas dormir, algo sucede
A ojos cerrados busco la ventana
Para mirarte a ti mientras los abro
Te digo que estás bella como nunca
Así, sin arreglarte aun el pelo
Rodamos en un beso cama abajo
Y siento que estás viva de milagro
Comienzo el día, así como si nada
Apretado a tus pechos, pidiéndote café y amor
Comienzo el día, aun alucinado
Los ruidos suenan lejos a esta hora turbia
Afuera la gente hace lo suyo por vivir
Afuera la gente quiere averiguar
Afuera la gente habla del amor
Afuera me están llamando
Comienzo el día, y antes de que me hables
Ya te hecho mil promesas que no voy a cumplir
Comienzo el día y al mirar hacia fuera
Me entra como un mareo y tengo que sentarme
Afuera la vida apenas comenzó
Afuera todo tiene que cambiar
Afuera los lobos son lobos aun
Afuera hay que salir armado
Quiero darle mi día a los que sueñan
A los que hacen el pan de madrugada
A los que ponen piedras sobre piedras
A los que te mantienen tan despierta
Comienzo el día, aseguro las llaves
Registro mis bolsillos en busca de monedas
Comienzo el día y aun detrás de la puerta
Te pido un beso fuerte para salir al sol
Afuera comentan la televisión
Afuera el sindicato discute una ley
Afuera la patria está por reventar
Afuera me están llamando y voy
No me dejas dormir, algo sucede
A ojos cerrados busco la ventana
Para mirarte a ti mientras los abro
Te digo que estás bella como nunca
Así, sin arreglarte aun el pelo
Rodamos en un beso cama abajo
Y siento que estás viva de milagro
Apretado a tus pechos, pidiéndote café y amor
Comienzo el día, aun alucinado
Los ruidos suenan lejos a esta hora turbia
Afuera la gente hace lo suyo por vivir
Afuera la gente quiere averiguar
Afuera la gente habla del amor
Afuera me están llamando
Comienzo el día, y antes de que me hables
Ya te hecho mil promesas que no voy a cumplir
Comienzo el día y al mirar hacia fuera
Me entra como un mareo y tengo que sentarme
Afuera la vida apenas comenzó
Afuera todo tiene que cambiar
Afuera los lobos son lobos aun
Afuera hay que salir armado
Quiero darle mi día a los que sueñan
A los que hacen el pan de madrugada
A los que ponen piedras sobre piedras
A los que te mantienen tan despierta
Comienzo el día, aseguro las llaves
Registro mis bolsillos en busca de monedas
Comienzo el día y aun detrás de la puerta
Te pido un beso fuerte para salir al sol
Afuera comentan la televisión
Afuera el sindicato discute una ley
Afuera la patria está por reventar
Afuera me están llamando y voy
