I 1974, mere end 10 år efter bruddet på det diplomatiske forhold mellem Cuba og USA, skrev den cubanske troubadour Silvio Rodríguez: “Man nærmer sig en solrig dag/ en dag af årgamle fortryllelser/ man nærmer sig en vild fugl/ susende mod glæden fra din duft/ man nærmer sig kaninernes tid”.
In 1974, more than ten years after the rupture of diplomatic relations between Cuba and the United States, Cuban singer-songwriter Silvio Rodríguez wrote: "A sunny day is moving in / a day of enchantments adjoining / a fierce bird approaching / buzzing to the pleasure of your scent / a time of rabbits is approaching."
