(Whose Face Do I Behold)

Translated By: Florentino Hornedo

—————————————————————————————

Whose face I do behold, mirrored

Upon the water I have boiled to drink?

I do not dare to think to prolong the vision.

If I die, bury me not

At the Cross of San Felix; bury me

Under your fingernails, that I may

Be eaten along with every food you eat, that I may

Be drunk along with every cup

Of water you drink.
