Un poema muy apropiado a considerar en esta juntura, no? Si habría tiempo, la traduciría para los personas que no comprenden español. Aunque, la traducción es difícil y toma mucho tiempo para hacer justicia a un poema, especialmente.

Y, como dice ud., "Simultaneous translation is dangerous". ¿Era ésa una indicación de buenas cosas de venir?
 

I started on it, alberich, but I'm not great at translation, even the most nonsimultaneous type.

All that I ask of God is that I not be indifferent to pain,
That dry death not overtake me empty and alone not having done what I needed to do.

Spanish is not a laugage I write in. It's a reading and a bit of speaking for me. Though I used to like Sabado Giagant an awful lot when I could get it here in the hinterlands.

I love the way Mercedes Sosa sings this song on her Mercedes Sosa in Argentina album.
 

All that I ask to God is
that I not be indifferent to pain,
That dry death does not find me
empty and alone not having done enough.

All that i ask to God is
that I not be indifferent to unjustice,
that no one slaps my other cheek
after a pawn scraped my luck.

All that i ask to God is
that i not be indifferent to war.
It's a big monster and steps on firmly
over the poor inocence of the people.

All that I ask to God is
that I not be indifferent to deception,
If a traidor can do better that a few
that those few won't forget it easily.

Al that I ask to Gos is
that I not be indifferent to th future
hopeless are the ones who have to go away
to live a different culture.

All that i ask to God is
that i not be indifferent to war.
It's a big monster and steps on firmly
over the poor inocence of the people.
