Día Artificial

Blockheads

Artificial Day

Child I knew how to give
I forgot this virtue
Since I became civilized
As today is artificial
Every beautiful stone was a treasure to my eyes
Every tree that grew was a respected property
Now I corrupt with the White-man
In front of a painted landscape
Whose value is estimated in dollars

Día Artificial

Niño, supe cómo dar
Olvidé esta virtud
Desde que me civilicé
Hoy en día es artificial
Cada hermosa piedra era un tesoro para mis ojos
Cada árbol que crecía era una propiedad respetada
Ahora me corrompo con el hombre blanco
Frente a un paisaje pintado
Cuyo valor se estima en dólares
