Arreba itsusia
Nire gelaranzko hogeita hamar mailak igoko ditut,
ohean etzan;
musika, biolina, korneta eta danborra
lokar daitezela nire baitan.
Nerabezaroan ez nintzenez sorgindu,
ez eta maitasunerako jaio,
zuhaitzekin eta haien isiltasun jatorrarekin jardungo dut,
dabilen haizearekin.
XIX Ugly Sister
I will climb thirty steps to my room, / Lie on my bed; / Let the music, the violin, cornet and drum / Drowse from my head. // Since I was not bewitched in adolescence / And brought to love, / I will attend to the trees and their gracious silence, / To winds that move.
