María Tepozteca [English translation]

Lovely Tepozteca,

of erect nipples,

and black zapote.

Obsidian eyes,

You were given life,

By the mother of eternal clay.

The Tepozteca moon,

Outlined your body,

With new desires.

And in the still of night,

You wet your thighs,

With the gentle waters

Of your streamlets.

Be careful,

Maria Tepozteca,

The night was mine

And it remained very quiet.

Be careful,

Maria Tepozteca,

If the night is ours,

It will not remain so quiet.

Maria, lets break in the night,

in the stream,

And we will make a debauchery,

Of this dimension

And I swear Maria woman,

There will be no now,

No before and no after.

And I swear,

Maria Tepozteca,

That it was all a dream,

That became a song.
