Soledad [English translation]

Loneliness

It was a starless night

when you left me,

so much pain & so much evil.

Loneliness

Since the day you left

In the village there is only

A monastic silence

Loneliness

The creeks are dry

and in the streets a thousand echoes

shout at you incessantly.

Loneliness

And again,

To leave with your songs

Forever the 'black cloths for mourning '***

shadow my sun.

Loneliness

Over and over again,

my loneliness.
