They spend their whole lives, opening with their hands, the furrows of new lands. The emerald green field, the blue sky of your eyes, you never turn your back on it, you begin happily, your arduous task. Sowing seeds, and waiting for the rain, man of the countryside, you who look at the sun, with your bronzed face. Your forehead sweats and perspires, from such hard work, your hands have become calloused, you worked hard and long. The sun, the earth and the water, are weapons of a great destiny, reaping the fruits is the humble peasant.

Your voice is the wind that straightens the ears of corn,
your embrace the harbor where any storm calms.
You hold in the palms of your hands the sun that warms us,
and in your gaze, a horizon that never closes.
You carry in your heart a garden that knows no winter,
where the strength you lack grows.
You are the memory that sustains us,
the invisible thread that, even when we stray,
never breaks.
Sometimes you are a river that runs silent and deep,
sometimes a mountain firm against any gale.
Always the same love, rooted, made home,
made all that makes us human.
And when the world weighs too heavily,
all I have to do is return to you,
to find my way again,
to find peace,
to find the place where I am whole.

As a shadow. Just as the ribs within our chests Keep breaking, again and again, As the Bargis devour the harvest And leave the fields stripped bare,
Trees stand wounded Upon the breast of nature.
Has anyone ever imagined Such an unfamiliar world Upon the sky Or upon the earth?
Life is a sorrow that stretches through time.
And yet, it grows.
Along the basin of life, How much it carries with it— How many memories, How many unspoken burdens Flow through its depths.
Still, it befriends the sunlight. It shimmers and smiles In the flowing breath of the wind.
It awakens love. It awakens sorrow.
And still, it sways, Gently, from side to side, Scattering glimmers of peace From the corners of its eyes.
It keeps growing upward, Higher and higher, Rising beyond its branches, Beautiful in the fullness Of its own existence.
At night, The birds sleep soundly Inside their cages, Undisturbed by the darkness.
This tree is a world, A world within another world—
Just as within a human being There dwells the human mind, An unseen world Within the world we see.
Life moves within life.
A dawn— A whole universe of light.
A night— An arrangement of sleep, A quiet realm of rest.
And yet, Why does light fail to break On certain mornings?
Why does sleep never come On certain nights?
The lives that disappear One by one from our lives—
Why do they remain strangers Even among the things we know?
Just when a hand rises To rest upon the forehead, The furrows of thought unfold,
And yesterday’s bloodshed Floats back Before our eyes.
Sorrow seems to crawl, Slowly, across the ground.
Sorrow seems to crawl, Slowly, across the ground.
