1. Oda a mi Habana.

La Habana,
Mi ciudad joven,
Mi ciudad vieja…
Si trepas por el mundo,
Cabes en mis ojos:
Trópico, mar, arrecifes, palmeras,
Sol, viento, aroma de tambor y flauta…
La habana,
Mi ciudad,
Prostíbulo de paredes carcomidas por el tiempo.
Si te veo en mi verso, te canto elevando mi nota
Sobre lo que queda de ti:
Cadáver quizás,
Mujer, levadura en lo estrecho,
Lagarto mutilado en verbenas nocturnas.
Si te recuerdo es porque lates en mi sangre:
Latifundios de miedos aterrorizan
Cañaverales en primavera
Y yo me quedo, desnudo,
Vistiendo a la giraldilla para no cambiar
Un beso de ron por un deseo de tequila.
Soy poeta, lo sé,
Comulga mi alma la penitencia de la rima
Y pronuncio discursos que sepan a ti.
El tirano está muerto y los hijos de la verdadera patria
Reclaman su cadáver en ultratumba.
Martí espera paciente para hacer justicia
Otra vez con su pluma dorada.
¿Quién será quien no sea mañana?
¿Y quién vendrá que no sea después?
La Habana,
Cenicienta de cuentos macabros,
No eres Vietnam, ni Berlín
Y parece que te han bombardeado con tantas bombas de hambre
Que en tu geografía llora mi lágrima
Como el llanto de cualquier cubano que mendiga por ti
Un porvenir mejor,
Un día mejor,
Donde la libertad sea el pan sobre la mesa
Y la verdad una oración de paz y amor…

Ode to Havana

Havana,
My young city,
My old city…
If you climbs on top of the world, You fit in my eyes:
Tropic, sea, reefs, palms,
Sun, wind, smell of drum and flute…
Havana, my city, brothel of decayed walls by the time.
I see you in my verse,
I sing to you lifting my note on which it is of you:
Corpse perhaps,
Woman, yeast in the narrow,
Lizard mutilated in nocturnal Spanish parties.
If I remember you it is because you bark in my blood:
Longest estates of fear terrify Cane plantations in spring
And I remain, naked,
Dressing the giraldilla just for not change
A kiss of rum by a tequila desire.
I am poet, I know that,
The penance of the rhyme agrees with my soul
And I deliver speeches that know all about you.
The tyrant is dead and the children of the true mother country
Demand their corpse of him in ultra tomb.
Martí hopes patient to make justice again with his golden pen.
Who will be the one who is not tomorrow?
And who will come that it is not later?
Havana, ashen of macabre stories,
You are not Vietnam, nor Berlin
And you look like somebody have bombed you with so many bomb of hunger
That in your geography cries my tear
Like the weeping of any Cuban that begs for you a better future,
A better day,
Where the freedom will be the bread on the table
And the truth an everlasting oration of peace and love…
