Resan till Gotland

Árbol de fuego
Alfredo Espino

Son tan vivos los rubores
de tus flores, raro amigo,
que yo a tus flores les digo:
“Corazones hechos flores”.

Y a pensar a veces llego:
Si este árbol labios se hiciera…
¡ah, cuánto beso naciera
de tantos labios de fuego…!

Amigo: qué lindos trajes
te ha regalado el Señor;
te prefirió con su amor
vistiendo de celajes…

Qué bueno el cielo contigo,
árbol de la tierra mía…
Con el alma te bendigo,
porque me das tu poesía…

Bajo un jardín de celajes,
al verte estuve creyendo
que ya el sol se estaba hundiendo
adentro de tus ramajes.

a moral from Shahname, written by the famous Persian poet and philosopher Ferdowsi. 

سپهری بر این‌سان که بینی روان
the flowing universe you see
  توانا و دانا جز او را مخوان
call only that almighty and all wise 
    تو رازِ جَهان تا توانی مجوی
don't search for the secret of the world
      که او زود پیچد ز جوینده روی
that it will quickly turn its back to the seeker
        به داد و دِهِش دلْ توان‌گر کنید
empower yourselves with justice and generosity 
          بر آزادگی بر سرْ افسر کنید
and make it your crown as a liberal 
             که فرجام هم روزمان بگذرد
that eventually our days will be over
              زمانه پی ما همی‌بشمرد
the universe is counting (the days) for us
