Now we will quote the famous lines of López Velarde:
Patria: tu mutilado territorio
se viste de percal y de abalorio.
Suave Patria: tu casa todavía
es tan grande, que el tren va por la vía
como aguinaldo de juguetería.
Patria: your maimed terrain
is clothed in beads and bright percale.
And in the tumult of the stations,
your brown-skinned face imparts
that immensity to every heart.
Axé.
