Cuando digo que voy a preparar tamalitos de maíz pienso en granitos de maíz blancos amarillos azules morados rojos y negros como un arcoíris cuando medio llueve Cuando digo tamalitos de maíz pienso en una milpa Así se le llama al terreno donde brota la planta de maíz al sembrarse el granito en la Madre Tierra When I say I’m going to make tamalitos I think about kernels of corn white yellow blue ones purple red and black ones like a rainbow when it’s drizzling When I say tamalitos I think of a field of corn That’s the place where a corn plant sprouts when we plant kernels of corn in Mother Earth
