Samuel Beckett -The vulture-

The vulture
Samuel Beckett (1906-1989)

dragging his hinger through the sky
of my skull shell of sky and earth

strooping to the prone who must
soon take up their life and walk

mocked by a tissue that may not serve
till hunger earth and sky be offal


El buitre

Arrastrando su hambre por el cielo
de mi cráneo casco de cielo y tierra

bajando a los postrados que pronto deberán
tomar su vida y marcharse

burlado por un tejido que acaso no sirva
hasta que hambre tierra y cielo sean carroña

Versión de Gerardo Gambolini
