Antes de ti
no tengo celos.
Ven con un hombre
a la espalda,
ven con cien hombres en tu cabellera,
ven con mil hombres entre tu pecho y tus pies,
ven como un rio
lleno de ahogados
que encuentra el mar furioso,
la espuma eterna, el tiempo.
Traelos todos
adonde yo te espero:
siempre estaremos solos,
siempre estaremos tu y yo
solos sobre la tierra
para comenzar la vida.
by Pablo Neruda
In English...
Always
Facing you
I am not jealous.
Come with a man
at your back,
come with a hundred men in your long hair,
come with a thousand men between your chest and your feet,
come like a river
filled with drowned men
that meets the furious sea,
the eternal foam, time.
Bring them all
to where I wait for you:
we shall always be alone,
it shall always be you and me
alone upon the earth
to begin life.
