How about this?

Brothers be united
because that is the first law;
have they a truthfull union
any time it may be,
bacause if they fight among themselves
will they be devoured by those from outside.

Martín Fierro

Definitly better in Spanish, no?

A mi me encanta la de José Martí:

La rosa blanca

Cultivo una rosa blanca
en junio como en enero
para el amigo sincero
que me da su mano franca
Y para el cruel que me arranca
el corazón con que vivo
cardo ni ortiga cultivo,
cultivo una rosa blanca.

¿Alguien sabe si existe versión en Inglés?
