Poem
Humberto Ak\'abal
i would like
The birdssing in full flight
and in full flight they shit.
I stare at them,
and my gaze follows
until the string
my vision has given them ends.
How I would like to be a bird
and fly, fly, fly
and sing, sing, sing
and shit-with pleasure
on some people
and some
things!

KINRAYIJ, KAWAJ
Ri e chikop kakib’an ri kib’ixpa taq ri kirapinik
are jampa’ kerapapik kekisinik.
Kimwil kiwäch,
kinterene’j ruk’ ri nub’oq’och
k’a pa jawi’ kak’is wi ri utzam bätz
ri kuya ri nub’oqoch chike.
Kinrayij kinb’an tz’ikin,
kinrapinik, kinrapinik, kinrapinik
xuquje’ kimb’ixonik,
kimb’ixonik, kimb’ixonik.
Sib’alaj utz kina’o kinb’an ri nukis
puwi’ kib’ oxib’ sutaq’
xuquje’ nikyaj sutaq chik.
