     As botellas de whisky valeiras
     nun curruncho da habitación
     de lado dun colchón
     mollado tapado cun edredón
     vello e cotrañento
     el que está el durmindo
     co corpo cheo de negrós
     que nin sabe que fixo
     e os restos de comida en descomposición
     fan esta paisaxe, este bodegón
     de merda, de lixo, de desilusion
     esta imaxe de futuro perderor
     que vai por dentro,
     e que non se ve porque está cocendo

     The empty bottles of whiskey
     by the corner of the bedroom
     besides a wet mattress
     covered with an old
     and filthy quilt;
     he who is sleeping
     with the body covered in bruises,
     who doesn’t even know what he did before,
     and the rotting leftovers,
     make this scene, this still life,
     of shit, of filth, of disillusion,
     this image of a future loser
     who’s in the inside
     who can’t be seen because he is being baked

   Synonym: porco
