“Me sinto bem satisfeito, sempre gostei de incentivar a quem vem chegando, para que cresça sempre mais.“
Moacir Carneiro Lima nasceu em Teixeira-PB, uma cidade reconhecida por sua forte tradição de poetas repentistas e cordelistas, no dia 8 de agosto de 1952. Filho de Jovita Maria e José Carneiro Lima, Moacir dedica-se há 50 anos à arte do repente e atualmente reside em Juazeiro do Norte-CE.
Seu início na cantoria ocorreu de forma muito natural. Ele conta que ouvia os repentistas improvisando e, a partir dessa experiência, começou a improvisar também. Com apenas 15 anos, comprou um violão e começou a praticá-lo junto aos versos que já escrevia. Desde então, decidiu seguir a arte da cantoria. Naquela época, sem acesso à TV e ao rádio, tudo que aprendia vinha das cantorias que ocorriam nas zonas rurais do Crato, onde morava até então.
Desde então, Moacir dedicou-se fielmente às cantorias, festivais e eventos aos quais era convidado, especialmente na região do Cariri, com ênfase nos municípios de Nova Olinda e Santana do Cariri, onde, segundo ele, cantou com mais frequência.
Entre os anos de 2014 e 2017, Moacir se afastou da profissão de cantador devido a um tratamento de saúde em Jales – SP, que envolvia uma cirurgia na região nasal. Entretanto, ele retornou ao Cariri no início de 2018 disposto a retomar seus trabalhos. Como ele mesmo afirmou: “A cantoria é minha profissão, não sei fazer outra coisa, eu só sei cantar”.
Durante sua estadia em São Paulo, Moacir encontrou outros violeiros e teve a oportunidade de tocar a viola nordestina ao lado de quem tocava a viola caipira, cada um cantando improvisos ao seu modo. Foi lá que adquiriu a viola que apresenta atualmente.
Para Moacir, saber ler não é uma exigência fundamental para a profissão de cantador; ele acredita que o dom da poesia é suficiente para viver da arte, desde que exista talento. Ele se considera um bom cantador, e o público também o reconhece: “sei escrever e ler muito pouco, mas a cantoria eu sei fazer”.
Ele observa que cerca de 70% das cantorias diminuíram em frequência, e que, atualmente, a maioria delas ocorre na zona rural, onde há mais renovações e festas desse tipo.
Moacir sempre se dedicou a incentivar novos cantadores, contribuindo para aumentar o número de poetas. Sobre ter sido mencionado pelo poeta Cicero da Silva como alguém que o ajudou no início de sua carreira, ele diz: “me sinto bem satisfeito, eu sempre gostei de incentivar a quem vem chegando”.
Embora não tenha trabalhos oficiais gravados, já participou de inúmeras cantorias ao lado de grandes poetas da região do Cariri. Além disso, teve dois irmãos repentistas, Júlio Carneiro e Luciano Carneiro, ambos residiam na cidade de Crato – CE.
Ao final da entrevista, Moacir concluiu: “Meu trabalho eu garanto de apresentar em qualquer parte”. E de fato, isso se comprova por meio de suas histórias e suas rimas repletas de desenvoltura e afeto.

A entrevista aconteceu no dia 17/04/2018 em sua residência, em Juazeiro do Norte-CE, para o projeto De Repente em Ação

Throughout the grand pattern of things you’ll receive a B+ for effort and hard work. Where exactly you lost me personally was first in all the details. As as the maxim goes, details make or break the argument.. And that couldn’t be much more accurate here. Having said that, let me say to you exactly what did work. The text is definitely really engaging and this is probably the reason why I am taking an effort to opine. I do not really make it a regular habit of doing that. 2nd, while I can notice the jumps in reason you come up with, I am definitely not certain of just how you seem to connect your details which in turn help to make the conclusion. For now I will, no doubt yield to your issue however wish in the future you link your dots much better.
