A beautiful, wistful song by the "Cuban John Lennon" (lol). Not explicitly political, though it has been interpreted as being dedicated to Fidel Castro. Rodriguez has said that it was written for his 1st love.

    I love the bare instrumentation of Victor Jara and this reminds me a lot of that. It's a really beautiful song, thanks for sharing.
