[02:49.20]And before dying I want to
[02:51.18]Share these poems of my soul
[02:54.03]My poems are soft green
[02:57.66]My poems are also flaming crimson
[03:01.94]My poems are like a wounded fawn
[03:05.25]Seeking refuge in the forest

[03:20.35]The streams of the mountains
[03:23.14]Please me more than the sea
[03:26.60]Con los pobres de la tierra
[03:30.86]Quiero yo mi suerte echar
[03:35.18]Con los pobres de la tierra
[03:39.22]Quiero yo mi suerte echar
[03:43.67]El arroyo de la sierra
[03:48.99]Me complace más que el mar
