Wayfarer, Antonio Machado


Wayfarer, the only way 
is your footsteps, there is no other. 
 
Wayfarer, there is no way, 
you make the way by walking. 
As you go, you make the way 
and stopping to look behind, 
you see the path that your feet 
will never travel again. 
 
Wayfarer, there is no way - 
Only foam trails to the sea.
 
~ Antonio Machado ~ 
 
(Selected Poems, trans. by A. Trueblood)
