lyrics

jamás cabrá otra estrella en pedregal. se va de prisa al cruzar donde caiga su cuesta desierta su cuesta y raya, y sí su navegar se hiciera piedra quedará un almanaque donde guarda su lunar. despégate en cortos ciegos.
enciéndete a cortos pliegos.

atrás de sal cambian los tres de manantial el oro en cañaveral de verdad se arresta sin desconsuelo atesta en contra al duelo y qué va replicar al tiempo entero sin contar la verdadera ciénaga de su portal. piensa.
entrégate de cielo inmenso.

jamás cabrá otra tierra en pedregal. se va de prisa al cantar
antes fiera
y entrañas
de cuerpo abierto, astillas
de cielo abierto.

-english translation-

never will another star fit in scree. it leaves in haste crossing where its slope falls deserted its slant and stripe, and if its sailing became a stone there will be an almanac where it keeps its moon. detach yourself in blind cuts.
ignite yourself to short folds.

back of salt the three change of wellspring the gold in reedbed truly is arrested without disconsolation it attested against mourning, and what will it retort to the entire Time without telling the true mire of its portal. think.
give yourself from immense sky.

never will another earth fit in scree. it leaves in haste singing
first fierce
and bowels
from open body, splinters
from open sky.
