00:00 Look, family, a boy too, who has a promise to Saint Lazarus.

00:06 Look, the boy.

00:09 How many years have you been carrying the promise to Saint Lazarus?

00:13 I am the boy of all the years here in Havana.

00:18 I leave from here sometimes from Centro Habana, sometimes I leave from Regla.

00:24 I am the boy of the cart with the stones that always goes through all this, through Havana.

00:31 A few days ago I was in several places.

00:36 I was in La Huinera, I was in Las Palmas, in Marianao La Liza.

00:47 And the evening of Saint Lazarus is approaching.

00:53 What I have in my heart, all the faith of Saint Lazarus and the whole world knows it,

01:00 what they know about this, that I have a promise.

01:06 And I do have a promise because I don't do this for pleasure, I don't do it because I want to.

01:11 I don't need this money.

01:13 This money is a promise that I make every year.

01:18 I go every Sunday to the church to deposit the money.

01:23 I give money to the miraculous who are there with Saint Lazarus.

01:28 And from the day it is celebrated on December 1st, I stop going there.

01:36 But I go myself, like this, with this cart, every year in the corner, for what it is.

01:44 And I don't go for pleasure. Many people see me, many people tell me why I do it.

01:51 And it is a promise that I have every year.

01:54 I have been going to the corner for years, since 2005.

01:59 This year I turn 19 years old and I go to the corner.

02:04 And I don't go for pleasure.

02:06 Last year I went out walking from Matanza.

02:11 I have photos on my Facebook, of the walk from Matanza.

02:17 I have photos of all the places I have been to and all the provinces I have been to.

02:24 I have always seen purple, in the same purple fabric as Saint Lazarus.

02:29 A suit of Saint Lazarus that I have, that they are making for me.

02:34 And this year, if God wants, and with the faith of Him, I will walk.

02:41 I will walk to the corner of Saint Lazarus with Him.

02:46 As I do, I do it every year.

02:48 And I want to ask you something. Where are you from, natural?

02:52 Natural, natural, I am from Guantanamo.

02:55 And every time I come to Havana, I come to my promise.

02:59 I will fulfill my promise on December 17.

03:04 I live in Camagüey.

03:08 And what is your name?

03:10 My name is Yenia Samuel Le Carille and they call me Lazarito.

03:14 I turn every year. I wish this video would go viral.

03:18 We will put it on Facebook, on the Cuban DNA platform.

03:22 And everyone knows that I walk on this stone from here in Havana to there,

03:31 crawling little by little with this cart.

03:36 And from Santiago de la Vega to there, I go crawling the stone.

03:41 And I go on the floor, crawling on my back.

03:45 I go in front, I go on my knees.

03:49 And I never fail.

03:52 I always arrive at 4 in the morning, I arrive at 5 in the morning in Rincón, but I never fail.

03:58 I arrive a little late, but I never fail in his day and in his week.

04:04 But I also have been for years.

04:08 I feel that I had an official problem.

04:12 Thank God, in 2011 I never failed and I will never fail to Saint Lazarus.

04:18 Because I have faith in him, I have a heart in him.

04:23 I believe in him and that for me, that is my everything, Saint Lazarus.
