Verses for Gladys

(To Gladys Marín)

The wait was so long, my secretarial companion,
protected by the araucaria growing in your garden.
With hope, I lived to have you face to face,
everyone knows here in foreign lands
you will be the young flag of the country's struggles.

Gladys, I know our people
are the most sorrowful flower in your distant garden.

From a land of peasants to a primary school teacher,
your path as a great revolutionary began.
I know your heart doesn't stir with complaints
but with thoughts of what happened to us
when the beast of suffering was unleashed there.

I know of your days, of your small figure
that grows and teaches noble reasons to exist.
No one can stop us from working for a future,
even though distant, it's certain because the homeland awaits it.
The star shines with you, dear Gladys Marín.
Dear Gladys Marín, the star shines with you.
