Through the soft sand that licks the sea
His small footprint does not return again
And a path alone, of sorrow and silence arrived
To the deep water
And a path only of pure sorrows reached
To the foam
God knows what anguish accompanied you
What old pains silenced your voice
To lie down lulled in the song
Of the sea shells
The song that sings in the dark bottom of the sea
The conch
You leave Alfonsina with your loneliness
What new poems did you go looking for?
An ancient voice of wind and sea
It breaks your soul and is carrying it away
And you go
Towards there as if in dreams
Asleep Alfonsina
Dressed as a sea
Five little mermaids will take you
Through paths of algae and coral
And phosphorescent sea horses will make
A round at your side.
And the inhabitants of the water are going to swim
Soon at your side.
Lower the lamp for me a little more
Let me sleep, nurse in peace
And if he calls, don't tell him I'm here,
Tell him that Alfonsina isn't coming back.
And if he calls, don't ever tell him I'm here,
Say that I'm gone.
