When men of incalculable values are born, the history of the nation gains more strength when remembering the birth of those Heroes. The lineage of Carlos Manuel de Céspedes is one of them, that his native Bayamo and his Cuba always evoke in every spring April.
As a man of impetus in beautiful semblance, the radiant Bayamese resurfaces that April remembers his legacy, his greatness with incomparable energy, his vocation, who transformed with his light the fields of the Island to awaken the courage of the nation.
In the sugar mill of La Demajagua, still transcends the ringing of its bells as an independence leader and fighter for human emancipation, the serene and beautiful fighter, the leader of fine sensitivity, the intellectual, poet and polyglot is venerated.
The immaculate merit of being the Father of the Homeland, endorses the value of not being the first to open his arms to freedom, but because he enlightened a people who needed his ideas, his patriotism in defense of the oppressed.
His legitimacy as initiator of the anticolonial combat, is the unquenchable virtue that points out the right path, reminding the dangers that a people lives if it sustains its look on its knees.
He is Céspedes, the paradigm of the philosophy of arms, study and work, to choose the path of honesty, integrity, decency, goodness, truth and justice; he is the insurgent star turned into a symbol of the nation.
Today your Cuba does not forget your birth in an April of flowers, poems and oratory, of perpetual homage to a man who transcends in the sacred altar of the Homeland, because Carlos Manuel de Céspedes, as Martí said, is impetus in beautiful semblance.
