Galician:
O teito é de pedra.
De pedra son os muros
i as tebras.
De pedra o chan
i as reixas.
As portas,
as cadeas,
o aire,
as fenestras,
as olladas,
son de pedra.
Os corazós dos homes
que ao lonxe espreitan,
feitos están
tamén
de pedra.
I eu, morrendo
nesta longa noite
de pedra.
English (Long night of stone):
The roof is of stone./ Of stone are the walls/ and the darkness./ Of stone the soil/ and the bars./ The doors,/ the chains,/ the air,/ the windows,/ the looks,/ are of stone./ The hearts of men/ that are lurking in the distance,/ are also/ made/ of stone./ And I’m dying/ in this long night of stone.
