Flow on, river! flow with the flood-tide, and ebb with the ebb-tide!
Frolic on, crested and scallop-edg’d waves!
Gorgeous clouds of the sun-set! drench with your splendor me, or the men and women generations after me;
Cross from shore to shore, countless crowds of passengers!
Stand up, tall masts of Mannahatta!—stand up, beautiful hills of Brooklyn!
¡Sigue fluyendo, río! ¡Avanza con la pleamar y retrocede con la bajamar!
¡Retozad, olas festoneadas!
Nubes suntuosas del ocaso, ¡rociadme con vuestro esplendor,
rociad a los hombres y mujeres de generaciones venideras!
¡Cruzad de una a otra orilla, incontables pasajeros!
¡En pie, altos mástiles de Mannahatta!- ¡En pie, bellas colinas de Brooklyn!
(Walt Whitman. Crossing Brooklyn Ferry)
