Reyes, the indecipherable providence
That doles out the prodigal and the scant,
Gave to some the sector or the arc,
But to you the total circumference.

Spanish Version:

Reyes, la indescifrable providencia
Que administra lo pródigo y lo parco,
Nos dio a los unos el sector o el arco,
Pero a ti la total circunferencia.
