This December 4th, Cubans celebrate the day of Santa Bárbara and/or Shango. Several artists have asked him “to give us much health, calm, stability, happiness, peace and harmony in our lives”.
“CONGRATULATIONS to all the children of Changó. Our Father’s blessings every day of this world, may he always deliver us from the enemies that can never defeat us, may he bestow upon us much health, tranquility, stability, happiness, harmony in our lives,” said singer La Diosa .
“And to my father, you are the king of music, always give me the wisdom to compose good songs for myself,” he added.
“Maferefun Shango. With all due respect and love. Let your drums and your music sound again for all born on this earth. Let our hearts dance. Help us to find this path of progress and development. Spread your mantle and give to us Power and decision,” asked comedian Ulises Toirac.
“Give us your thunder and energy. That we can sing more than wail, walk more than wait for providence, do more than wait for them to do us. Grant us common sense, wisdom, and discernment. And that we all have a great party. Maferefun Shango on your day. And every day”.
The actor Erdwin Fernández also called on all Cubans.
“Blessed Saint Barbara, King and Queen, thank you for all the good you have given us, congratulations today and always. Take care of us, protect us and my people, give them what their heart desires. Give me strength and courage people who defend their children, brothers, wives and families, by those who enjoy hitting and oppressing their peers, especially men, because women have a lot of courage and have shown it”.
“Do not allow violence, it is not good, but teach them that defending oneself against violence is honorable, just and necessary. Make their arms your sword and their heads your crown, and that your red color is not only a backdrop to your altar, if not the color of their indignation when they are overpowered and their children, wives and wives are smitten”.
“I ask you for much peace, much peace for the Cuban people, much wisdom and prosperity, but also freedom, freedom of all kinds, that it is a country where the criteria of others and diversity are respected. a country that, being inherently beautiful, cradles all its children and annihilates anyone who tries to divide its families. Amen.”
