Gustavo Adolfo Becquer


1836, Sevilla, España - 1870, Madrid, España


Una mujer me ha envenenado el alma

Una mujer me ha envenenado el alma,
otra mujer me ha envenenado el cuerpo;
ninguna de las dos vino a buscarme,
yo de ninguna de las dos me quejo.

Como el mundo es redondo, el mundo rueda;
si mañana, rodando, este veneno
envenena a su vez ¿por qué acusarme?
¿Puedo dar más de lo que a mí me dieron?


A woman has poisoned my soul

A woman has poisoned my soul,
Another one has poisoned my body;
None of them came to look for me,
I don't complain for none of them.

As the world is round, the world rotates.
If tomorrow, rotating, this poison
Does poison in turn, who can accuse me?,
Can I give more than I was given?
