Touched by An Angel by Maya Angelou
We, unaccustomed to courage
exiles from delight
live coiled in shells of loneliness
until love leaves its high holy temple
and comes into our sight
to liberate us into life.
Love arrives
and in its train come ecstasies
old memories of pleasure
ancient histories of pain.
Yet if we are bold,
love strikes away the chains of fear
from our souls.
We are weaned from our timidity
In the flush of love's light
we dare be brave
And suddenly we see
that love costs all we are
and will ever be.
Yet it is only love
which sets us free.

Nosotros, no acostumbrados a la valentía
exiliados de placer
vivimos enroscados en las conchas de la soledad
hasta que el amor sale de su templo santo
y viene a nuestra vista
para liberarnos a la vida.
El amor llega
y en este tren viene éxtasis
viejos recuerdos de placer
historias antiguas de dolor.
Sin embargo, si somos atrevidos,
el amor golpea las cadenas del miedo
de nuestras almas.
Nosotros detestamos nuestra timidez
En el color de la luz del amor
nos atrevemos a ser valientes
Y de repente vemos
este amor cuesta todo lo que somos
y siempre seremos.
Sin embargo, sólo es el amor
lo que nos hace libres.
