Lash,
sweat and the lash.
The sun was up early
And found the Black barefoot,
His scarred body naked,
In the field.
Lash,
Sweat and the lash.
The wind went screaming by:
"Your hands are two black blossoms!"
His blood said to him: "Do it!"
He said to his blood: "I'll do it!"
He left, barefoot, in the blood.
The canefield, trembling,
let him pass.
Afterward, the silent sky,
and beneath the sky, the slave
stained with the master's blood.
Lash,
sweat and the lash,
stained with the master's blood.
Lash, sweat and the lash,
stained with the master's blood,
stained with the master's blood.
NICOLÃS GUILLÃN.
