Alegunda es su guía; ella le está ayudando a volverse a la vida;
poco a poco sus enseñanzas han ayudado a hacer fuerte a Azucena.
Alegunda is her guide; she is helping her return to her life;
little by little, her teaching has helped strengthen Azucena.
La medicina de la flor medicinal ha tenido unos efectos benéficos;
el amor gotea otra vez dentro de su corazón, invadiendo su desierto.
The shining flower medicine has had beneficial effect;
love trickles back into her heart, invading its desert.
El líquido claro esta irradíado por los rayos del sol
que le llueve en abundancia del amplio cielo de Mexico.
The clear liquid is irradíated by the streaks of sunshine
that pour down in abundance from the ample sky of Mexico.
La niña retardada se ha convertido en la hermana de Azucena;
y Alegunda ha llegado a ser para ella como una nueva madre.
The retarded girl Aurora has become Azucena's own sister;
and Alegunda has come to seem to her like her new mother.
Azucena coloca los remedios indios para el amor bajo su lengua; ella
toma la bugambilia para la rabia, y la manzanilla para la estupidez.
Azucena put the indían love remedies under her tongue;
she took bugambilia for rage; and chamomile for idiocy.
Bajo su lengua los efectos sutiles están ocurríendo;
sentada en la mesa con una mirada inocente en su cara.
Beneath her tongue its subtle effects are ocurring;
sitting at table with an innocent look on her face.
Aurora la mira y Azucena dice "esta bien espérate un minuto"
y saca el agua radíante para Aurora: laurel para la catatonia.
Aurora stares at her and Azucena says "all right just a minute"
she gets out the radíant water for Aurora: laurel for catatonia.
Las tres estan felices y contentas viviendo con este momento;
el naufragio del corazón de Azucena no parece haber sido fatal.
The three of them are happy and content in this living moment;
Azucena's heart-wreck seems to have not been fatal after all.
