Sad wars if the enterprise is not love.
Sad, sad.
Sad weapons if they are not words.
Sad, sad.
Sad shadows if they do not die of love.
Sad, sad.

THE YOUNG FARMER
Miguel Hernández Neokasteyano 2010-jap
Pronunciation
Yoke flesh, has been born
wetter than old,
with the neck pursued
by the yoke for the neck. |
Born, like the tool,
destined to blows,
from a discontented land
and an unsatisfied plow. |
Between pure and living manure
of cows, brings to life
an olive-colored soul
already old and calloused. |
It begins to feel, and feels
life like a war,
and to laboriously give
on the bones of the earth. |
He doesn’t know how to count his years,
and already knows that sweat
is a heavy crown
of salt for the farmer. |
He works, and while he works
manly and serious,
he is anointed by rain and adorned
with cemetery flesh. |
By force of blows, strong,
and by force of sun, polished,
with an ambition of death
he tears apart a contested bread. |
Each new day is
more root, less creature,
that listens beneath his feet
the voice of the grave. |
And like a root he sinks
slowly into the earth,
so that the earth floods
his forehead with peace and bread. |
This hungry child hurts me
like a grand thorn,
and his ashen life
stirs my holm oak soul. |
I see him plowing the stubble,
and devouring a crust,
and declaring with his eyes
why he is yoke flesh. |
He gives me his plow in the chest,
and his life in the throat,
and I suffer seeing the fallow
so vast beneath his step. |
Who will save this little boy
smaller than an oat grain?
Where will the hammer come from
executioner of this chain?
Let it come from the heart
of the working men,
who before being men are
and have been young farmers as children. |
