Entames D’esmenu A Ser

Por Xe M. Sánchez

Deprendí’l significáu

d’una maconada de pallabres.

Deprendí que les pallabres

son preseos y armes

-en tiempu de paz

y cuandu españen les guerres-.

Deprendí que si deprendes

a dicir non,

entames d’esmenu

a ser xente sospechosu.

You Start to Become Suddenly

By Xe M. Sánchez

I learned the meaning

of a lot of words.

I learned that the words

are tools and weapons

-in times of peace

and when the wars explode-.

I learned that if you learn

to say no,

you start suddenly to become

suspicious people.
