Trust in the Eyeglass, Not in the Eye
(For Spanish translation click here)

Trust in the eyeglass, not in the eye,

in the stairway, never in the step;

in the wing, not in the bird

and in only you, only you, only you.

Trust in the evil, not in the vicious,

in the glass, never in the liquor;

in the corpse, not in the man

and in only you, only you, only you.

Trust in many, but no longer in one,

in the river bed, never in the current;

in the stockings, not in the legs

and in only you, only you, only you.

Trust in the window, not in the door,

in the mother, not in the nine months;

in the destiny, not in the gilded dice

and in only you, only you, only you.
