Tradicion by Victor Hernandez Cruz

Let the water rain into the forest

So that the vines holding up the guiros

Can flourish

Craft attack the vegetable kingdom

And make the lines that will sound

In Baltasar's ears

On the day of the astologers

Along with the guitar of the fourth dimension

Those that know themselves within: dance

Those that know themselves within: song

Those that know themselves within: relations

Those that know themselves within: food

Those that know themselves within: Religion

Those that know themselves within: Prayer

Those that know well the place of their tongue

The shape of their sound

Can go then and make everything disappear.
