Aunque Es de Noche

How well I know the source that flows and runs
Although it is night

That eternal source is hidden
How well I know where it has its abode
Although it is night

In this dark night of this life
How well I know by faith the cold source
Although it is night

I do not know its origin, for it has none
But I know that all origins come from it
Although it is night

I know there can be no thing so beautiful
And that heavens and earth drink from it
Although it is night

I know its bottom is not found in this life
And that no one can cross it
Although it is night

Its clarity is never darkened
And all light comes from it
Although it is night

And its currents are so abundant
That heavens, hells, and people are irrigated by them
Although it is night

The current that flows from this source
I know is so capable and omnipotent
Although it is night

The current that comes from these two
I know none precedes it
Although it is night

In this eternal source it is hidden
In this living bread to give us life
Although it is night

Here all creatures are called
And from this water they drink, though in darkness
Although it is night

In this living source that I desire
In this bread of life I see her
Although it is night
