Catorce de Diciembre

Don Toribio Montañez was born on the 14th of December
Belongs to the cowboy court they light up
Green candles are offered to him black mountain coffee and
Without sugar, chaw, clear cane and also his favorite fruit
Watermelon

It is a spirituality of very high light they make
Requests for properties and businesses prayer
Don José Toribio de la Peña Montañez you are my shepherd
And I entrust myself to you welcome this lost one who has
Rocked on the tip of the stars hanging from the night

Like a lightning bolt to set fire to the roots of the earth
Numb his torment with your wise kindness let the light
Shine in your eyes to illuminate all the children of your queen
Maria Lionza that you are the grandfather of forgiveness, in you the prayer
Turns into fire and the distance of the plain walks through your hands towards my awakened solitude

Chase away his bad thoughts with your grandfatherly tenderness
Older than the darkest night than your possessed chaw
Filled with animals and dreams fill his eyes with aguardiente so he
Sees the joy writhing in the belly of the spirits you who are
The psalm and the prayer heal his sadness with the honesty of your word

And crack the face of his silence until the first minerals sprout
Of life Don José Toribio de la Peña Montañez you are my shepherd and to you
I entrust myself welcome this lost one who has come from the shadows of
His head so you can light a candle behind his eyes and the smoke rises above
The world to the space where the spirits dance with
Your open grandfatherly laughter in the dawned night amen
