    DELMIRA AGUSTINI: El Poeta Leva el Ancla

    Delmira Agustini

    (1886-1914)

     

    El Poeta Leva el Ancla

    El ancla de oro canta…la vela azul asciende
    Como el ala de un sueño abierta al nuevo día.
    Partamos, musa mía!
    Ante lo prora alegre un bello mar se extiende.

    En el oriente claro como un cristal, esplende
    El fanal sonrosado de Aurora. Fantasía
    Estrena un raro traje lleno de pedrería
    para vagar brillante por las olas.

    Ya tiende
    La vela azul a Eolo su oriflama de raso…
    El momento supremo!…Yo me estremezco; acaso
    Sueño lo que me aguarda en los mundos no vistos!…

    Acaso un fresco ramo de laureles fragantes,
    El toison reluciente, el cetro de diamantes,
    El naufragio o la eterna corona de los Cristos?…

     

    The golden anchor beckons

     

    The golden anchor beckons, the blue sail rises

    Like the wing of a dream unfolding to a new day.

    Let us depart, my muse!

    Beyond an anxious prow, the sea stretches itself out.

     

    In the crystal clear East, Aurora’s

    Blushed beacon shines. Fantasy

    Is donning a rare garment of gems

    To wander brilliantly over the waves.

     

    The blue sail

    Unfolds its private oriflamme to Aeolus…

    The supreme moment!…I tremble: do I know–

    Oh God!–what awaits me in unseen worlds?

     

    Perhaps a freshly picked bouquet of fragrant laurels,

    The golden fleece, a diamond scepter,

    A shipwreck, or the eternal crown of the Anointed Ones?…
