HUIPIL

Huipil que vistes princesas,

huipil bordado en silencio;

lejos de todo y muy cerca de tu alma;

bordas flores, para vestirte,adornarte;

ahí pones tu corazón; flores mayas,

hombre maíz; metáforas de tu vida.

Huipil que contiene tu vida profunda,

tus abuelas, tus hijas, tus nietas;

a todas les enseñas este bello,

código de amor maya, símbolos abstractos,

flores, animales; vibraciones de amor,

pájaros; volcán de fuego,

explosiones de belleza y color;

de tu cintura emergen,para embellecerte,

huipiles, cinturones de flores, palomas,

¡adornando tu vida!.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       

HUIPIL

Huipil that dresses princesses,

huipil embroidered in silence

away from all, close to the soul;

embroidering flowers, to wear,

to adorn you; there you put your heart;

mayan flowers, man corn;

metaphors of your life;

huipil that contains the depth of your life ,

your grandmothers, daughters, granddaughters;

to all you teach this beautiful, mayan code of love;

abstract symbols; flowers, animals;

vibrations of love; birds, volcano of Fire;

explosions of beauty and color; from your waist emerges;

to embelish you;  huipiles, belts of flowers, 

doves;  adorning your life!!
