They put the prisoner
against the wall.
A soldier ties his hands.
His fingers touch him strong,
gentle, saying goodbye.
Forgive me, compañero
says the voice in a whisper.
The echo of his voice
and of
those fingers on his arm
fills his body with light
I tell you his body fills with light
and he almost does not hear
the sound of the shots.

Et incarnatus est de spiritu sancto
Ex Maria Virgine, et homo factus est.
Crucifixus etiam pro nobis.

He became incarnate of the Virgin Mary,
and was made man.
For our sake he was crucified.
