Our Virgin La Chinita
Our Lady of the Rosary of Chiquinquirá or the Virgin of Chiquinquirá is a title given to the blessed Virgin Mary in the northern andean region of South America. She is the patron saint of Colombia, the Venezuelan state of Zulia, and the town of Caraz in P.
In Colombia, her painted image rests in the Basílica of Our Lady of the Rosary in Chiquinquira, where thousands of pilgrims arrive not only for the Feast Day on July 9, but also every Sunday, when they celebrate masses and processions. On July 3, 1986, Pope Jhon Paul II visited the sanctuary and prayed for peace in Colombia at the feet of the Virgin Mary's image. The title given to the Virgin is from the city of Chiquinquirá, where the first of the Virgin's miraculous manifestations occurred, and where the original image from the sixteenth century is kept.
An image of the Virgin of Chiquinquirá can be found at the Basílica of Maracaibo, in Maracaibo, Venezuela, where it is also called La Chinita. Every November 18, the city celebrates the traditional Feast of La Chinita with masses and processions in honor of the Virgin.
Gaita In Honor of La Virgen de Chiquinquira
La Elejida
Coro:
Todo era humilde precario pero en el ambiente espero brotaban tan solo rezos de aquellas almas a diario, colgaba un viejo rosario en la pared de aquel nido,y un cuadro descolorido con aroma de presagio y a su lado un crucifijo con el primer legionario
bajita dulce y silenciosa, serena y piadosa suma delgadez, espiritu en luz imantado que trae a su lado a quien bien la ve , es ella la humilde elegida , que trajo a maria a su inmediatez
Coro (bis)
Fue tal y ferviente el anhelo de traer del cielo la madre de dios, incada en el rustico suelo desgarrando el velo su alma derramó, en mil oraciones benditas y al fin la tablita se resplandeció
Coro (bis)
... pero el cuadro se ha prendido y estalla de luz la sombra, la tablita se transforma, y es un mistrio encendido brotan chorros de luz pura, la pintura se abrillanta y surge la imagen santa, iluminica figura
Milagro, el 18 de noviembre hubo un milagro, ha llegado nuestra virgen del rosario, la chinita que la luz de dios nos trajo (bis x 5)
Urban legends of Venezuela
The Sayona
La Sayona is a legend from Venezuela, represented by the spirit of a woman that shows up only to men that have love affairs out of their marriages. The name "Sayona" refers to the cloth the ghost wears which is a long white dress similar to a medieval undergarment. It also refers to the french term "sayon" that means executioner.
This legend is originated in the Venezuelan plains, where they claim that if you have a piece of tobacco in your pocket, the “omy” is not going to get you. The “sayona” is also known as the “llorona” or the crier, since a variation of the legend says that she is always crying with a baby in her arms. The legend claims that when this woman appears she asks for a cigarette or for a ride, and after a while when the victim tries to see her face, he notices that she has instead a skull with horrible teeth
The legend says that "La Sayona" was a young woman named Melissa. She lived in a small town in the plains of Venezuela and was the most beautiful girl there. She was married to a great man, caring and loving. Melissa and her husband had a baby boy. One day, Melissa was swimming naked in a near-by river, when a man from the village saw her. After that, the man would always follow her and watch her bathe in the river. One day Melissa saw him and told him to leave her alone; he ignored her, and instead told her that he was there to warn her: "Your husband is having an affair with none other than your mother," he said. Melissa ran home and found her husband asleep with the baby in his arms. Blind with anger, she burned the house with them inside. Villagers could hear their screams while Melissa ran to her mother's house. She found her on the patio and attacked her with a machete, striking her in the stomach. As the mother bled to death, she cursed Melissa by saying that from then on she would have to avenge all women by killing their unfaithful husbands. And from that day forward Melissa became "La Sayona".
In other versions of the tale, it appears to lone men working in the jungle when they are thinking of women they left behind in their hometown or simply when they talk to their work mates about wanting to be with a woman. Later on, a woman would appear to them in the likeness of an unknown, beautiful and desirable woman, or a loved one, and try to lure them into the forests so it could then reveal their animal-like features and devour them or just mangle them, leaving their wretched bodies for their companions to find.
