I Am Not Alone

To my children ... how much I love and care for them ...

I Am Not Alone

The night, it is deserted

from the mountains to the sea.

But I, the one who rocks you,

I am not alone!

The sky, it is deserted

for the moon falls to the sea.

But I, the one who holds you,

I am not alone!

The world, it is deserted.

All flesh is sad you see.

But I, the one who hugs you,

I am not alone!

.... Gabriela Mistral(1922)
