by Lucila de María del Perpetuo Socorro Godoy Alcayaga (1889 - 1957), as Gabriela Mistral

Me ha besado y ya soy otra
Language: Spanish (Español) 
Me ha besado y ya soy otra: 
otras, por el latido que duplica el de mis venas; 
otra, por el aliento que se percibe entre mi aliento.

Mi vientre ya es noble como mi corazón...

Y hasta encuentro en mi hálito una exhalación de flores: 
¡todo por aquél que descansa en mis entrañas blandamente, 
como el rocío sobre la hierba!
