Afuera: En el nombre del cielo os pido posada

pues no puede andar mi esposa amada.

Adentro: Aquí no es mesón sigan adelante,

yo no debo abrir, no vaya a ser un tunante.

No seas inhumano, ténnos caridad, que el Dios de los cielos te lo premiará.

Ya se pueden ir y no molestar

porque si me enfado os voy a apalear.

Venimos rendidos desde Nazaret,yo soy carpintero de nombre José.

No me importa el nombre déjenme dormir

pues que yo les digo que no hemos de abrir.

Posada te pide, amado casero, por sólo una noche la Reina del Cielo.

Pues si es una reina quien lo solicita

¿cómo es que de noche anda tan solita?

Mi esposa es María, es Reina del Cieloy madre va a ser del Divino Verbo.

¿Eres tú José? ¿Tu esposa es María?Entren, peregrinos, no los conocía.

Dios pague Señores, vuestra caridad, y que os colme el cielo de felicidad.

¡Dichosa la casa que alberga este díaa la Virgen pura, la hermosa María!

Cuando ya les abren los de adentro:Entren santos peregrinos, peregrinos

reciban este rincónque aunque es pobre la morada, la morada

se las doy de corazón

Antes de romper la piñata:No quiero oro, ni quiero plata

yo lo que quiero es romper la piñata

Al romper la piñata:Dále, dále, dále

no pierdas el tinoporque si lo pierdespierdes el camino

Dále, dále, dáledále y no le dio

quítense de enmedioporque sigo yo

Piñata Posada at 3pm

The posadas are a very strong Latin America tradition where, during the nine days before Christmas, the journey of Joseph and Mary seeking shelter so that the baby Jesus could be born is commemorated. The last day that is celebrated is on Christmas Eve. During this season, Nativity scenes are repre-sented with creative installations that show the place where Jesus was born and the Three Wise Kings are approaching. The mixture between art crafted elements and religious motifs along with creative imagery enrich these festivities, the most anticipated in the Christian world. During these days hot fruit punch and candy are shared when the litanies are finished and the pilgrims, simulating the seeking of shelter, are ready to break up the piñatas. This is the first time we host las Posa-das en Pilsen, on the same date that the feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe, Queen of America and Patron Mother of Mexico, is celebrated.

Las posadas son una tradición en la que durante los nueve días anteriores a la Navidad, se rememora la andanza de San José y la Virgen María, para que el Niño Jesús pudiese nacer. La última se celebra la Nochebuena. Durante esta época, el Nacimiento es representado en una instalación creativa, que muestra el pesebre donde nació Cristo y en el que se van acercando los tres Reyes Magos y se muestra la vida de los pastores y del pueblo en general. La mezcla de elementos artesanales tradicionales con los motivos religiosos y de la imaginación, enriquecen y ambientan estas fiestas, las más esperadas del mundo cristiano, en que se comparte el Ponche (bebida caliente de frutas) y la colación (dulces de cacahuate recubiertos), cuando ha terminado el canto de letanías (simulando a los peregrinos pidiendo hospedaje o posada), para después romper las piñatas rellenas de fruta y dulces. Este año se realizan por primera vez en Pilsen, el Dia de celebración de la Virgen de Guadalupe, Reina de América y Patrona de Mexico.

track 1.0

PILSEN soundtrack 1.0

The fourteen songs of Pilsen Soundtrack 1.0, truly represent the wide and eclectic spec-trum of musical tendencies that are emerging in Pilsen, a Chicago neighborhood that was the port of entry for many immigrants who arrived perhaps not laden with material goods, but carrying within them their art: melodies, rhythms and musical memories of their home-lands, which soon emerged and were shaped by the experiences of the new land. Fandanguero, Son del Viento and Tarima Son are bands that are rooted in Veracruz’s centuries-old son jarocho genre, which emigrated from Mexico to Chicago in the 80´s. However, each of these bands takes the son jarocho in new and original directions: Fan-danguero integrates Cuban and flamenco sounds; Tarima Son explores the sounds from other states in Mexico such as Guerrero, Michoacan, Hidalgo, Jalisco, and Son del Viento highlights the windy city´s own emerging “JaroChicagoan” tradition. Azul de Noche con-tinues the blues en español tradition which exploded in the capital city of Mexico in recent decades, now steeping it in Chicago’s blues; and in contemporary mestizajes, Benjamin Anaya and the United Strangers mash up the tropics in electronically-tinged bossa nova. Latino alternative scene are well-represented by Los Vicios de Papá, Chicago´s pioneer and premiere Latin ska band, as well as LFT, a band exploring hip-hopped indie sounds, telling the story in the poetry of two languages and perhaps summarizing the CD best: “Estoy tumbando las barreras, estoy cruzando las fronteras, estoy buscando la man-era… I am breaking down barriers, we are looking for a better way, I have already crossed your borders”. This is ultimately the story the compilation tells beautifully and musically: Barriers have been broken down, borders have been crossed, and a better way is being found through the arts and through the music.
