Yo No Soy Yo
Soy este
que va a mi lado sin yo verlo;
que, a veces, voy a ver,
y que, a veces, olvido.
El que calla, sereno, cuando hablo,
el que perdona, dulce, cuando odio,
el que pasea por donde no estoy,
el que quedará en pié cuando yo muera.
I am this one
walking beside me whom I do not see,
whom at times I manage to visit,
and whom at other times I forget.
The one who remains silent while I talk,
the one who forgives, sweet, when I hate,
the one who takes a walk when I am indoors,
the one who will remain standing when I die.
(English Version by Robert Bly)
walking beside me whom I do not see,
whom at times I manage to visit,
and whom at other times I forget.
The one who remains silent while I talk,
the one who forgives, sweet, when I hate,
the one who takes a walk when I am indoors,
the one who will remain standing when I die.
(English Version by Robert Bly)
Sunt acela
pasind alaturi de mine fara sa-l vad,
pe care uneori ajung sa il vizitez,
iar alteori il uit.
Cel ce ramane tacut cand vorbesc
cel ce iarta cu blandete cand urasc,
cel ce face o plimbare cand raman inchis in casa,
cel ce va ramane in picioare cand voi muri.
pasind alaturi de mine fara sa-l vad,
pe care uneori ajung sa il vizitez,
iar alteori il uit.
Cel ce ramane tacut cand vorbesc
cel ce iarta cu blandete cand urasc,
cel ce face o plimbare cand raman inchis in casa,
cel ce va ramane in picioare cand voi muri.
