Must be the Season of the Witch

It must be the season of the witch
     la bruja
     la llorona
she lost her children
     and she cries
en las barrancas of industry
     her children
devoured by computers
and the gears
must be the season of  the witch.
     I hear huesos crack
in pain
     y lloros
la bruja pangs
     sus hijos han olvidado
la magia de durango
     y la de moctezuma
    ilhuicamina
must be the season of the witch
la bruja llora
sus hijos sufren: sin ella

Alurista from "Fiesta en Aztlán"

bruja: witch
barrancas:  canyons
magia:   magic
sus hijos han olvidado:  her children have forgotten
