Inmortality
Porque no pude detenerme
Ante la muerte
Amablemente ella
Se detuvo ante mí
El carruaje solo nos
Encerraba a nosotros
Y a la inmortalidad.
♪
Condujimos lentamente
Ella no sabe de apuros
Y por su cortesía debí
Abandonar mis labores
E incluso mis ratos de ocio
♪
Pasamos por la escuela
Donde jugaban los niños
Sus lecciones apenas concluidas
Pasamos frente a los
Campos de pastoreo
Y ante el sol que se ponía
♪
Nos detuvimos ante
Una casa que
Parecía una hinchazón
De la tierra
Su techo, solo visible
Su cornisa, apenas un montículo
♪
Desde entonces
Han pasado siglos
Pero cada uno parece más corto
Que el día en que
Anuncié por vez
Primera que las
Cabezas de los caballos
Apuntaban hacia la eternidad.
♪
Because I could not
Stop for Death
He kindly stopped for me
The Carriage held
But just Ourselves
And Immortality
♪
We slowly drove
He knew no haste
And I had put away
My labor and my leisure too
For His Civility
♪
We passed the School
Where Children strove
At Recess– in the Ring
We passed the Fields
Of Gazing Grain
We passed the Setting Sun
♪
Or rather– He passed Us
The Dews drew
Quivering and Chill
For only Gossamer
My Gown, My Tippet
Only Tulle
♪
We paused before a
House that seemed
A Swelling of the Ground
The Roof was scarcely visible
The Cornice– in the Ground
♪
Since then–
'Tis Centuries– and yet
Feels shorter than the Day
I first surmised the
Horses' Heads
Were toward Eternity.
