No día sinalado (gl – en)

O tractor teimudo rascou a tona verde

Empuxado polo cortexo de plumas brancas

A terra aberta mostrou o seu ventre marrón

Fértil, debecendo pola vida acolleu a semente 

…

Pero no día sinalado, a semente e a terra, 

As aves e o tractor, desterrados, solitarios,

Axexaron o estático telón azul ata o horizonte 

Agardando en van algún movemento

Mentres mudos escoitaban festas ao lonxe

•

On the appointed day

The stubborn tractor scratched the green field

Pushed by the courtship of white feathers

The open soil showed its brown belly

Fertile, desiring life, it welcomed the seed

…

But on the appointed day, the seed and the soil,

The birds and the tractor, banished, solitary,

Stalked the static blue curtain to the horizon

Waiting in vain for some movement

While silently listening to distant celebrations
