O Corvo I 22nd Maio 2008 – Posted in: Libros libres

Unha media noite estraña, mentres triste eu meditaba,
sobre curiosos volumes de saberes ancestrais,
a piques de estar durmido, sentín de súpeto un ruído,
de algún petar fuxidío, suave sobre o meu portal
—Unha visita —supuxen— que peta no meu portal
é só isto, nada máis.

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore —
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
“‘Tis some visiter,” I muttered, “tapping at my chamber door —
Only this and nothing more.”
