>> Ars poética.

00:00:02.186 --> 00:00:08.176 align:middle
I, poet by trade, condemned
so many times to be a crow,

00:00:08.856 --> 00:00:11.776 align:middle
would never change places
with the Venus de Milo.

00:00:12.586 --> 00:00:18.276 align:middle
While she reigns in the Louvre and
dies of boredom and collects dust,

00:00:18.326 --> 00:00:26.396 align:middle
I discover the sun each morning and amid
valleys, volcanoes and debris of war,

00:00:26.396 --> 00:00:29.866 align:middle
I catch sight of the promised land.

00:00:31.756 --> 00:00:37.586 align:middle
Yo, poeta de oficio, condenada
tantas veces a ser cuervo,

00:00:37.726 --> 00:00:41.016 align:middle
jamás me cambiaría por la Venus de Milo.

00:00:41.886 --> 00:00:47.226 align:middle
Mientras reina en el Louvre y
se muere de tedio y junta polvo,

00:00:48.086 --> 00:00:53.176 align:middle
yo descubro el sol todos
los días y entre valles,

00:00:53.246 --> 00:00:59.026 align:middle
volcanes y despojos de guerra,
avizoro la tierra prometida.
