Omar García Obregón: “In Winter”

 

 

 

Translated by Parvati Nair (Queen Mary University of London)

 

IN WINTER we lost the swallows

That fearless left their nests,

In their wisdom they knew of certain death

If they did not depart to discover the world.

 

 

 

EN INVIERNO perdimos golondrinas

que abandonaban sin temor el nido,

sabias conocían muerte certera

de no salir a descubrir el mundo.
