Folliña murcha no vento revoando sin parar, eco de copra lonxana que resoa no pinal. Estrela tola que a tombos pol ceo adiante vai... ¡como vos, vou polo mundo sin saber onde iréi dar! Raiola de sol que morre nas verdes ágoas do mar, xirón de brétema escura que cobre o frolido val, verso doente de salmo que chora fondo penar... ¡raiola, xirón e verso, todos sodes meus irmans!

Hojita marchita en el viento revoloteando sin parar, eco de copla lejana que resuena en el pinar, estrella sola que, a tumbos, por el cielo adelante va... ¡como vosotras voy por el mundo sin saber dónde iré a parar! Rayo de sol que muere en las verdes aguas del mar, jirón de niebla oscura que cubre el florido valle, verso doliente de salmo que llora hondo penar... ¡rayo, jirón y verso todos sois mis hermanos!
