The song was the expression of the composer’s anger after Gabo, before winning the Nobel Prize, obtained the Rómulo Gallegos prize in Venezuela, money that Gabriel García Márquez donated to the Socialist Movement, instead of allocating resources to the impoverished population that supported him. where he was born, and which would later be the center of his literary success.
“To the writer Garcia Marquez “You have to let him know well that the land where he is born is the one he should love.”says one of the sections of the song.
