Que recitar ou declamar,
Sobre Abril, sobre a história?
Que tenho p’ra vos contar,
Se Abril foi de glória!
Já tudo foi dito e escrito,
Do país é já memória.
Já tudo foi dito e escrito,
Tudo foi declamado:
Do que foi Abril, o grito,
Da arma G3 com cravo.
Faz parte da nossa história,
E na escola é ensinado.
Revolução pela liberdade,
Novo mundo nos foi dado.

Que tenho eu p’ra vos contar,
Se tudo já foi contado!
Falar dos militares de Abril,
Neste país tão mudado?
Falar dos nossos partidos
Que o têm ignorado?
Não!...

Abril são as nossas mãos,
Sempre dadas, sempre unidas.
É a amizade entre irmãos,
São as lutas conseguidas.

Abril é a nossa vontade,
É juventude e mocidade.
Abril é servir a terra
Que Abril aos filhos lega.

É de todos quantos dão,
Amor e fraternidade.
No lugar, terra, nação,
Ensinando a liberdade.

José Faria – Abril 08

«Last summer when I traveled to Africa I was lucky enough to deliver hundreds of goody bags bloggers put together for orphans in need. It was a wonderful and yet exceptionally frustrating experience. The customs officials in Mozambique were none too pleased I was bringing in “commercial goods” without a formal tax letter, etc. It took quite a bit of arguing and promising I wasn’t going to sell toothbrushes on the black market for the goods to finally leave the airport and make there way to the orphanage.

So, this summer I thought I’d go about things a bit differently. What could be put in my suitcase and not seem out of place? T-shirts. The Nicaraguans and Mozambicans I work with live on less than $1 per day — the World Bank marker for extreme poverty. They get their clothing through a complicated route and it has been my experience that regardless of color, fit or style, folks are tickled pink to receive a new (to them) piece of clothing. I save my clothes during the year that would otherwise go to Goodwill and instead take them on my trips. When I’m done wearing them, I hand-wash the best I can and pass them on to someone else. I try to do this in a respectful way, fully recognizing that hand-me-downs can be a rude pat on the head. The friends I’ve made through international travels have always been pleased.

If you are interested in participating, I’ll be taking as many T-shirts as I can to Nicaragua in May and Mozambique in June. A T-shirt provides a creative canvas for those who want to decorate, and the opportunity for the non-crafty folk who want to play along by sending one they want to share. I’ve got a couple ideas for onesies (orphanages in both locales) and for adults. I would like to give that freezer paper technique a whirl.

The details:

1. Please send only two things: a new T-shirt of any size (I’ll be working with newborns to the elderly) and a 3×5 card with a note on why you wanted to participate. If you want to include a photo/prayer/quote on your card, great! No card? That’s fine too. The card motivation is to let the recipient know there is someone in the world who wants a better life for them, even if all we can do in this moment is share a shirt and perhaps some peace in the process.If you want your shirt to go to Nicaragua, please write the note in Spanish on one side. If you want it to go to Mozambique, please write the note in Portuguese. (...)
2. In return I’ll send you a thank you along with photos of those the T-shirt project benefited. I’ll provide a more detailed story of the typical Nicaraguan and Mozambican who benefited from your kindness. I’ll be forever indebted.
3. Shirts must be to me in Arizona by May 25th.
4. Email me for shipping details: africankelli at gmail dot com»
