Hiltzaile Zuria

HILTZAILE ZURIA

Ante la televisión
Entre rimbombantes palabras
La barba arreglada
Corbata
Y el traje bien planchado
El asesino
No parece
Tan asesino.

Si vas a matar a alguien
No lo hagas
Rudamente
Consigue jabón y
Lávate bien
Las manos
Las acciones de guante blanco
No parecen tan obscuras.

Ante la televisión
Entre elegantes palabras
Atienden
Con gran atención
Los comentarios
De nuestro personaje
Dándole paso
Le saludan
Con consideración.
De hecho, amigo
Comprobarás que
Guardando las apariencias
Bien limpios los dientes
Convenientemente adornado
Con bellas palabras
El crimen cometido
No parece
Ya tan crimen.
Y es que el asesino aquí
No parece
Tan asesino
Encorbatado
Con la barba arreglada
Y su traje
Entre rimbombantes palabras
Ante la televisión.

The White Murderer

THE WHITE MURDERER

In front of the television
Within pompous words
A well-groomed beard
Tie
And a well-ironed suit
The murderer
Doesn't seem
So much a murderer.

If you're going to kill someone
Don't do it
Roughly
Get some soap and
Wash your hands
Well
Actions in white gloves
Don't seem so dark.

In front of the television
Within elegant words
They attend
With great attention
The commentaries
Of our character
Giving him way
They greet him
With consideration.
In fact, my love
You will find that
Keeping up appearances
Teeth well cleaned
Properly adorned
With beautiful words
The crime committed
Doesn't seem
Such a crime anymore.
And the fact is, the murderer here
Doesn't seem
So much a murderer
In a tie
With a well-groomed beard
And his suit
Within pompous words
In front of the television.
