Glory

I remember my mother's hands
Laced in prayer
Frail as birds
Face she carried
Like a terrible, terrible ache
I have never seen
Such glory since

I remember my father's voice
Dressed in anger
Swollen with grace
My surrender and his forgiveness
I have never seen
Such glory since

I remember my sister's belly
White and swollen
Carefully swaying
Eyes were glowing
From carrying such grace
I have never seen
Such glory since

Gloria

Recuerdo las manos de mi madre
Encadas en la oración
Frágil como las aves
Cara que llevaba
Como un terrible, terrible dolor
Nunca he visto
Tal gloria desde

Recuerdo la voz de mi padre
Vestida de ira
Inflamado de gracia
Mi rendición y su perdón
Nunca he visto
Tal gloria desde

Recuerdo el vientre de mi hermana
Blancas e hinchadas
Balanceándose con cuidado
Los ojos brillaban
De llevar tal gracia
Nunca he visto
Tal gloria desde
