Blonde
Do you know, blonde, that favor I solicit
when I cover the altars with offerings?
Not rich furnishings, not superb lands,
neither a table that flatters the apetite.
At the edge of Aragua I want a parcelto supply me with simple pleasures,
and close to my rustic homea brook that runs among the rocks.
To feel good around the summery warmth,
I also want my plot to have a grove,where the proud coconut and the willow can grow.
I'll be happy if in this refuge I die;
and, upon exhaling my fugitive breath,
I stamp on your lips my last goodbye!
