— Tacet —
Ya que este mundo abandono, Ántes de dar cuenta á Dios, Aquí para entre los dos, Mi confesion te diré: -- Con toda el alma perdono Hasta á los que siempre he odiado; ¡Á tí, que tanto te he amado, Nunca te perdonaré!

Now that I abandon this world, before rendering account to God, I will tell you my confession here, face-to-face. I pardon with all my soul even those people I have always hated. As for you, whom I have loved so much, I will never forgive you!

Al comenzar la noche de aquel día,
ella, lejos de mí,
-- ¿Por qué te acercas tanto? -- Me decía;
-- ¡Tengo miedo de tí! --
Y después que la noche hubo pasado
dijo, cerca de mí:
-- ¿Por qué te alejas tanto de mi lado?
¡Tengo miedo sin tí! --

At the beginning [of] the night that day, She, far away, said to me, Why are you moving so close to me? I am afraid of you. And after the night had passed She said, close to me: Why are you going away from my side? I am afraid without you!
