- Meu querido Pai
Non s’azañe prego
S’esta carta escribo
Posta nestes versos:
Nin tome cabuxo
S’ô castellan deixo
Por falar na fala
Dos nosos galegos,
Qu’inda nela podo
Sin poñer un erro
Espricar bem craro
Tod’os meus conceutos.- My beloved father
I ask you not to anger
if this letter I write
put into these verses
neither get upset
if Castilian I left
to speak the tongue
of our Galicians,
because in it I can,
without making a mistake,
explain crystal clear
all of my concepts.
- My beloved father
