Padú del Caribe (Father of the Caribbean, born Juan Chabaya Lampe; April 26, 1920[1] – November 28, 2019) was an Aruban musician and songwriter who had been recording and composing for several decades. He wrote "Aruba Dushi Tera", a waltz that is now the national anthem for Aruba and was long a rallying cry for separation from the Netherlands Antilles, which was achieved in 1986.
His music was featured in the 2013 film Abo So.[2]
Juan Chabaya Lampe died on November 28, 2019, at his home in Oranjestad, Aruba, aged 99.[3]
