Words from a journal entry by Osip Mandelshtam;
Music: Instrumental parts "A MI MARIA" (D.A.R. Trad./MEXICO)
Adaptation by Ponty Bone
There are women who are natives of the sodden earth
Their every step, a hollow sobbing-
Their calling, to accompany the dead
To be the first to meet the Risen.
And we should trespass to demand caressess from them
To part from them - is beyond our strength
Whatever shall be is a promise only
Whatever shall be is a promise only.
