Amanecer de otoño

Una larga carretera
entre grises peñascales,
y alguna humilde pradera
donde pacen negros toros.
Zarzas, malezas, jarales.
 
Está la tierra mojada
por las gotas del rocío,
y la alameda dorada,
hacia la curva del río.
Tras los montes de violeta
quebrado el primer albor:
a la espalda la escopeta,
entre sus galgos agudos,
caminando un cazador.
 
Translation

Autumn Sunrise

A long road
between gray rocky cliffs,
and a humble meadow
where black bulls happen by.
Brambles, thickets, rockroses.
 
The earth is drenched
by the dewdrops,
and the poplar grove is golden
around the bend of the river.
Behind the violet hills,
the first dawn has broken:
a shotgun on his back,
in among his agile greyhounds,
a hunter is walking.
