Gabriela Mistral (1889-1957) was born in the small northern-Chilean town of Vicuña. She rose from near-poverty to acheive a significant international reputation not only as a poet, but also as an educator, a diplomat and a journalist. In 1945 she became the first Latin American to win the Nobel Prize for Literature.
| La Bailarina
La bailarina ahora está danzando En el filo del día y el solsticio Sin nombre, raza ni credo, desnuda No está danzando el vuelo de albatroses El nombre no le den de su bautismo. Sin saberlo le echamos nuestras vidas Sonámbula, mudada en lo que odia, Somos nosotros su jadeado pecho, |
The Dancer
Now the dancer is dancing On the edge of the day the solstice curls Without name, race or creed, without relation She isn’t dancing the albatrosses’ flight, They didn’t baptise her with this name. Without knowing it we throw our lives Sleepwalker, becoming what she despises, We ourselves are her panting chest, |
