Sweetness, A Spanish Poem By Gabriela Mistral In English Translation



My dear mother
Tender mother of mine
Let me tell you
A sweetest of all things.

My body is yours
That you put together in a bouquet
In your lap
Let it stir a little.

You play to be a leaf
And I will be the dew
In your crazy arms
Suspend me in the air.

My dear mother
You are my whole world
Let me tell you
My extreme love for you.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Dulzura

Madrecita mía,
madrecita tierna,
déjame decirte
dulzuras extremas.

Es tuyo mi cuerpo
que juntaste en ramo;
deja revolverlo
sobre tu regazo.

Juega tú a ser hoja
y yo a ser rocío:
y en tus brazos locos
tenme suspendido.

Madrecita mía,
todito mi mundo,
déjame decirte
los cariños sumos.

-Gabriela Mistral
