Neruda, Pablo: I Will Come Back (Yo Volveré in English)

Portre of Neruda, Pablo

Yo Volveré (Spanish)

Alguna vez, hombre o mujer, viajero,

después, cuando no viva,

aquí buscad, buscadme

entre piedra y océano,

a la luz procelaria

de la espuma.

Aquí buscad, buscadme,

porque aquí volveré sin decir nada,

sin voz, sin boca, puro,

aquí volveré a ser el movimiento

del agua, de

su corazón salvaje,

aquí estaré perdido y encontrado:

aquí seré tal vez piedra y silencio.

I Will Come Back (English)

Some time, man or woman, traveller,

afterwards, when I am not alive,

look here, look for me here

between the stones and the ocean,

in the light storming

in the foam.

Look here, look for me here,

for here is where I shall come, saying nothing,

no voice, no mouth, pure,

here I shall be again the movement

of the water, of

its wild heart,

here I shall be both lost and found -

here I shall be perhaps both stone and silence.
