La calumnia
Puede una gota de lodo
sobre un diamante caer;
puede también de este modo
su fulgor oscurecer;
pero aunque el diamante todo
se encuentre de fango lleno,
el valor que lo hace bueno
no perderá ni un instante,
y ha de ser siempre diamante
por más que lo manche el cieno.
Defamation
A drop of mud may fall
on a diamond;
as such, it may also
dim its brilliance;
but even if the diamond finds
itself all covered in mud,
the value that makes it good
will not be lost for an instant,
and it shall always be a diamond
no matter how much mud stains it.
