Poetry by Mario benedetti

Traslatíon

 Syndrome

I still have almost all my teeth

almost all my hair and very little gray

I can make and break love

climb a ladder two by two

and run forty meters behind the bus

I mean I shouldn't feel old

but the serious problem is that before

I didn't pay attention to these details.

Pronunciation why spanish orthography

Síndrom

Ái stil jav olmos ol mái tit

olmos ol mái jer an very lirl grey

Ái can méik and break lov

claim a lider chu by chu

and rán forty miter bijáin de bás

Ái min ái shudn fil olt

bat de sirius problem is dat bifor

ái dident pey atenshon chú dis díteils.
