The first Bayamesa was composed in 1851 by Carlos Manuel de Céspedes and José Fornaris at the request of their friend Francisco Castillo Moreno, who is sometimes also credited with the lyrics. In addition to the "Himno de Bayamo", there are two other well-known Cuban songs called "La Bayamesa". The Cuban composer Antonio Rodriguez-Ferrer contributed the musical introductory notes to the Cuban national anthem. Officially adopted by Cuba as its national anthem in 1902, upon the foundation of the Republic, it was retained even after the revolution of 1959. Just before the firing squad received the Fire command, Figueredo shouted the line from his song: "Morir por la Patria es vivir" (English: "To die for one's country is to live"). Figueredo was captured and executed by the Spanish two years later. Right on the saddle of his horse, Figueredo wrote the lyrics of the anthem, which was longer than the current official version. On October 20, 1868, the Cuban forces obtained the capitulation of the Spanish colonial authorities in Bayamo, the jubilant people surrounded Figueredo and asked him to write an anthem with the melody they were humming.
