Incorporates

Sergio Umbria

Compositor: Sergio Umbría

Each culture absorbs elements of
Cultures near and far, but
It is then characterized by the way
Which incorporates those elements

This is how our cult of Mary was born
Lionza, already existing indigenous people of that time
They had their religious way of worshiping God, but
Once the African culture arrived, in it
I mix part of theirs

Each culture absorbs elements of
Cultures near and far, but
It is then characterized by the way
Which incorporates those elements

The seven African powers are deities of the
African cult, and which today is worshiped in
The belief in María Lionza, Chango, Elegua, Obatala
Yemaya, Orula, Ochum, Ogum, is that mixture of other
Cultures, near or far, that make up and extend
Culture

Each culture absorbs elements of
Cultures near and far, but
It is then characterized by the way
Which incorporates those elements
