by Miguel de Cervantes
I look for life in death,
for health in sickness,
for freedom in prison,
a way out from the impasse,
and loyalty in the Judas.
But my destiny, from which I would
never expect anything good,
has decreed with the Gods
that, since I ask for the impossible,
they won't even give me the possible.

Busco en la muerte la vida by Miguel de Cervantes
