Para La libertad
Joan Manuel Serrat Lyrics
Para la libertad, sangro, lucho, pervivo
Para la libertad, mis ojos y mis manos
Como un árbol carnal, generoso y cautivo
Doy a los cirujanos
Para la libertad siento más corazones
Que arenas en mi pecho, dan espumas mis venas
Y entro en los hospitales, y entro en los algodones
Como en las azucenas
Porque donde unas cuencas vacías amanezcan
Y hará que nuevos brazos y nuevas piernas crezcan
En la carne talada
Retoñarán aladas de savia sin otoño
Reliquias de mi cuerpo que pierdo en cada herida
Porque soy como el árbol talado que retoño
Aún tengo la vida
Para la libertad, sangro, lucho, pervivo
Para la libertad, mis ojos y mis manos
Como un árbol carnal, generoso y cautivo
Doy a los cirujanos
Porque donde unas cuencas vacías amanezcan
Ella pondrá dos piedras de futura mirada
Y hará que nuevos brazos y nuevas piernas crezcan
En la carne talada
Retoñarán aladas de savia sin otoño
Reliquias de mi cuerpo que pierdo en cada herida
Porque soy como el árbol talado que retoño
Aún tengo la vida, aún tengo la vida

Catalan singer-songwriter Joan Manuel Serrat got involved in music at the age of 17, when he got his first guitar, to which he dedicates one of his earliest songs, "Una guitarra."
In early 60's the young artist participated in a pop band playing along with classmates at Barcelona's Agronomy School, doing mainly Beatles stuff and Italian 'pop-of-the-era' songs translated to Spanish.
In 1965, while singing in a radio show called Radioscope, host Salvador Escanilla helped him to get a record deal with local label Edigsa where he recorded his first EP, as well as became part of Els Setze Jutges, a group of Catalan artists aiming to promote a renaissance of Catalan culture after Spanish Franco's dictatorship and make it spread into popular classes.
Joan Manuel Serrat's first live stage performance in 1967 at the Catalan Music Palace, established definitely his name as one of the most important artists inside the 'Nova cançó' ('New Song') movement in Catalonia.
Next year, Spain originally entered Serrat in the Eurovision Song Contest 1968 to sing "La, la, la", but he asked to sing it in Catalan, to which the Spanish authorities would not agree. This would be the first time he came into conflict with the language politics of Francoist Spain, because of his decision to sing in his native Catalan language, repressed by Franco. After the incident, Serrat was hurriedly substituted by Massiel, who won the contest with her Spanish-language version. By that time Serrat's songs were banned and his records burned in the streets. He then traveled to South America and participated in the Rio de Janeiro's World Music Festival, where he took first place with the song "Penélope."
In 1969 Serrat released an album containing songs with texts of Antonio Machado, a well known Spanish poet of late 19th-early 20th century. This album gave him immediate fame in all Spain and Latin America though, in spite of this, his decission to sing in Spanish was still criticized in some nationalistic Catalan circles.
The release of 1971's Mediterráneo LP consolidated the artist worldwide. In 1976, Joan Manuel Serrat was acclaimed for the first time in the U.S.A. while performing in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and New York.
In late 1974, Serrat was exiled in Mexico due to his condemnation of arbitrary executions under Franco's regime. It wasn't until Franco's death (November 20, 1975) that Serrat was able to return to his homeland.
In January of 1995, the Spanish government gave him a medal for his contribution to the Hispanic culture. That same year, a tribute album called Serrat, Eres único was made to honor his career, featuring artists such as Diego Torres, Ketama, Rosario (Flores), Joaquín Sabina, and Antonio Flores. In the year 2000, the Spanish Association of Authors and Editors (SGAE) awarded him with one of ten Medals of the Century.
In October 2004 he revealed that he had been undergoing treatment for cancer of the bladder and in November that year he cancelled a tour of Latin America and the USA in order to undergo surgery in Barcelona, where he still lives. By that time, his wonderful song "Mediterráneo" was selected as the most important song of the 20th century in Spain.
His recovery was satisfactory, and in 2005 he went on a tour again ("Serrat 100×100") around Spain and Latin America with his lifelong producer and arranger, Ricard Miralles.
A second volume of Serrat, eres único was also released this year, featuring Alejandro Sanz, Estopa, and Pasión+Vega. Around the same time, Cuban artists such as Silvio Rodríguez, Pablo Milanés, Chucho Valdez, and Ibrahim Ferrer came together to make another tribute CD, Cuba le canta a Serrat.

PARA LA LIBERTAD
Para la libertad, sangro, lucho, pervivo.
Para la libertad, mis ojos y mis manos
como un árbol carnal, generoso y cautivo,
doy a los cirujanos.
Para la libertad siento más corazones
que arenas en mi pecho: dan espumas mis venas,
y entro en los hospitales, y entro en los algodones
como en las azucenas.
Porque donde unas cuencas vacías amanezcan
ella pondrá dos piedras de futura mirada
y hará que nuevos brazos y nuevas piernas crezcan
en la carne talada.
Retoñarán aladas de savia sin otoño
reliquias de mi cuerpo que pierdo en cada herida.
Porque soy como el árbol talado, que retoño:
porque aún tengo la vida.
Solange Voiry
Siempre para la "Libertad"...
Año 1975, actuación en el madrileño Parque de Atracciones.
POEMA COMPLETO DE MIGUEL HERNÁNDEZ:
EL HERIDO
----------
Para el muro de un hospital de sangre.
I
Por los campos luchados se extienden los heridos.
Y de aquella extensión de cuerpos luchadores
salta un trigal de chorros calientes, extendidos
en roncos surtidores.
La sangre llueve siempre boca arriba, hacia el cielo.
Y las heridas suenan, igual que caracolas,
cuando hay en las heridas celeridad de vuelo,
esencia de las olas.
La sangre huele a mar, sabe a mar y a bodega.
La bodega del mar, del vino bravo, estalla
allí donde el herido palpitante se anega,
y florece, y se halla.
Herido estoy, miradme: necesito más vidas.
La que contengo es poca para el gran cometido
de sangre que quisiera perder por las heridas.
Decid quién no fue herido.
Mi vida es una herida de juventud dichosa.
¡Ay de quien no esté herido, de quien jamás se siente
herido por la vida, ni en la vida reposa
herido alegremente!
Si hasta a los hospitales se va con alegría,
se convierten en huertos de heridas entreabiertas,
de adelfos florecidos ante la cirugía.
de ensangrentadas puertas.
II
Para la libertad sangro, lucho, pervivo.
Para la libertad, mis ojos y mis manos,
como un árbol carnal, generoso y cautivo,
doy a los cirujanos.
Para la libertad siento más corazones
que arenas en mi pecho: dan espumas mis venas,
y entro en los hospitales, y entro en los algodones
como en las azucenas.
Para la libertad me desprendo a balazos
de los que han revolcado su estatua por el lodo.
Y me desprendo a golpes de mis pies, de mis brazos,
de mi casa, de todo.
Porque donde unas cuencas vacías amanezcan,
ella pondrá dos piedras de futura mirada
y hará que nuevos brazos y nuevas piernas crezcan
en la carne talada.
Retoñarán aladas de savia sin otoño
reliquias de mi cuerpo que pierdo en cada herida.
Porque soy como el árbol talado, que retoño:
porque aún tengo la vida....

Miguel Hernández fue, en los pocos años que le permitieron vivir, uno de los más grandes poetas que ha dado este país. Poeta del pueblo hasta el último extremo. Comprometido, apasionado en todo lo que hacía y en todo lo que sentía. Y Serrat supo como nadie ponerle voz sonora a su voz poética, para que, años después, continuase siendo el poeta del pueblo.

Y lo sigue logrando, porque él presidente Obrador reconoce que el pueblo respeta las recomendaciones para esté tiempo de pandemia de quedarse en casa y salir nadamas por lo necesario y el trabajo, y se demuestra que con responsabilidad se tiene libertad.
En otros países se obliga a quedarse en casa

Ese poema de Miguel Hernández es uno de sus mejores legados, y en la voz de Serrat, un homenaje a los que luchan por la libertad, los de hoy, los de siempre.
natarov
Tal vez el mejor poema de Miguel Hernández, como sólo lo podría musicalizar Serrat. Himno a la Libertad, homenaje a los luchadores de todos los tiempos
Sergio Cabrera
"Porque soy como el árbol talado, que retoño y aún tengo la vida". Precioso verso que describe la historia de España con un puñado de palabras.
