I believe a random reader stumbled onto this blog to locate the following poem, where the line "Beloved be the one who sits down" was quoted in one of my Jan 2002 entries.
You're in luck.
Here's the poem "Stumble Between 2 Stars", by Cesar Vallejo:
Beloved be the unknown man and his wife.
My fellow man with sleeves, neck and eyes!
Beloved be the one who sleeps on his back.
The one who wears a torn shoe in the rain.
Beloved be the bald man without hat.
The one who catches a finger in the door.
Beloved be the one who sweats out of pain or out of shame.
The one who pays with what he does not haveā¦
Beloved be the ones who sit down.
Beloved be the one who works by the day, by the month, by the hour.
Beloved be the one who sweats out of pain or out of shame.
The person who goes, at the order of his hands, to the movies.
The one who pays with what he does not have.
The one who sleeps on his back.
The one who no longer remembers his childhood.
Beloved be the one who sits down.
Beloved be the just man without thorns.
The bald man without hat.
The thief without roses.
The one who wears a watch and has seen God.
The one who has honor and does not die!
You're in luck.
