Stanzas que tocam o coração e a alma do poeta.

Porque “além da Noite Escura”, a “Esperanza del cielo
tanto espera quanto alcanza…”

6.IV

(…)

“Por una extraña manera

mil vuelos pasé de un vuelo

porque esperanza del cielo

tanto alcanza cuanto espera

esperé solo este lance

y en esperar no fui falto

pues fui tan alto tan alto,

que le di a la caza alcance.”

*****

“6.IV

“In a wonderful way

my one flight surpassed

a thousand,

for the hope of heaven

attains as much as it hopes for;

this seeking is my only hope,

and in hoping, I made no mistake,

because I flew so high, so high,

that I took the prey.”
