AMANECER – Mundo carnal, la primavera, resina en los dedos, pegajosos después de abrazar el árbol de palma y la corteza pegada, su opresión débil que despierta con un toque de rojo y los ojos velado por la tristeza, la prohibición se puede descubrir el centro del corazón¿Cuál fue mi voluntad pero subir a los árboles, llegar a la cima y ver las estrellas por la noche brillando en silencio? Se despertó en el mundo, ahora amanecey sin su voluntad se queda atónito, la pereza infinita, la soledad de nuestro manantial infinito alegría que exhala esta amenaza, esta melancolía. (DAWN – Carnal world, spring, resin on the fingers, sticky after hugging the palm tree and the bark stuck, its weak oppression that awakens with a touch of red and the eyes veiled by sadness, the ban can be discovered heart center.What was my will but climb the trees, reach the top and see the stars at night shining in silence? He woke up in the world, now dawns and without his will he is stunned, the infinite laziness, the loneliness of our infinite spring joy that exhales this threat, this melancholy).
