Pablo Neruda-- Stones of the Sky
XII
Yo quiero que despierte
La luz encarcelada:
Flor mineral, acude
A mi conducta:
Los párpados levantan la cortina
Del largo tiempo espeso
Hasta que aquellos ojos enterrados
Vuelvan a ser y ver transparencia.
Translation:
I want the light
Locked inside to awaken:
Crystalline flower
Wake as I do:
Eye lids raise the curtains
Of endless earthen time
Until deeply buried eyes
Flash clear enough again
To see their own clarity.
