1. I saw the best minds of my generation
destroyed by madness, starving hysterical
naked, dragging themselves through the
negro streets at dawn looking for an angry fix,
angelheaded hipsters burning for the ancient
heavenly connection to the starry dynamo in
the machinery of night, who poverty and
tatters and hollow-eyed and high sat up
smoking in the supernatural darkness of cold-
water flats floating across the tops of cities
contemplating jazz

2. Vi las mejores mentes de mi generación
destruidas por la locura, hambrientas
histéricas desnudas, arrastrándose por las
calles de los negros al amanecer en busca de
un colérico pinchazo, hipsters con cabezas de
ángel ardiendo por la antigua conexión
celestial con el estrellado dínamo de la
maquinaria nocturna, que pobres y
harapientos y ojerosos y drogados pasaron la
noche fumando en la oscuridad sobrenatural
de apartamentos de agua fría, flotando sobre
las cimas de las ciudades
