I fear no oblivion for thy just deeds, standing as
thou dost in thy place appointed by the Supreme Lord of All, who governs all things.

Therefore, O Nezahualcoyotl, rejoice in what the
present offers, crown thyself with flowers from thy gardens

The pleasures and riches of this life are but loaned,
their substance is vain, their appearance illusory;
and so true is this that I ask thee for an answer to these questions:

What has become of Cihuapan? Of the brave Quantzintecomatzin?
Of Conahuatzin? What of all these people?
Perhaps these very words have already passed into another life.

Would that we who are now united by the ties of love and friendship could foresee the sharp edge of death, for nothing is certain, and the future ever brings changes.
