Cyrano de Bergerac

Edmond Rostand

English

Small--my nose?
'Tis enormous!
Old Flathead, empty-headed meddler, know
That I am proud possessing such appendice.
'Tis well known, a big nose is indicative
Of a soul affable, and kind, and courteous,
Liberal, brave, just like myself, and such
As you can never dare to dream yourself,
Rascal contemptible! For that witless face
That my hand soon will come to cuff--is all
As empty. . .
of pride, of aspiration,
Of feeling, poetry--of godlike spark
Of all that appertains to my big nose,

¿Cómo? ¿Yo un chato igual que vos?
¡Eso nunca! Prefiero
ser el más narigudo caballero,
a no tener nariz. ¡Grande es la mía!
¡Enorme! ¡Gigantesca! ¡Colosal!
Pero yo, de este apéndice nasal,
siempre estuve orgulloso. Un narigudo
es siempre un hombre bueno,
cortés, leal, inteligente, agudo
y de virtudes lleno.
¡No como vos, de inteligencia romo
y en quien nadie repara
¡Largo de aquí, rufián de tomo y lomo,
que ni nariz teneis en esa cara!.
