Sobre Todo Amor

Sometimes poverty is painful
And the poor who suffer from it hardens
It becomes so bitter and humiliating
Having to beg for bread

That's why it's so difficult to be their servant
Not giving with disdain a handout
And not just giving them bread and soup
But giving them above all holy love

Love in sweetness and smiles
Love in kindness and good humor
But love even more when
The poor are rude, dirty, and repugnant
Let the poor be your master

You are a servant to that sensitive poor
So wounded in their highest dignity
Only through love does he forgive you
For the bread you humbly give

Love in sweetness and smiles
Love in kindness and good humor
But love even more when
The poor are rude, dirty, and repugnant
Let the poor be your master
