El texto que sale como fondo es el poema 19 del "Canto a Mi Mismo" del poeta norteamericano Walt Whitman citado en su inglés a continuación:

19 : This is the meal equally set, this the meat for natural hunger, // It is for the wicked just same as the righteous, I make appointments //with all, //I will not have a single person slighted or left away, //The kept-woman, sponger, thief, are hereby invited, //The heavy-lipp'd slave is invited, the venerealee is invited;
There shall be no difference between them and the rest.//This is the press of a bashful hand, this the float//and odor of //hair, //This the touch of my lips to yours, this the murmur of yearning, //This the far-off depth and height reflecting my own face, //This the thoughtful merge of myself, and the outlet again.//Do you guess I have some intricate purpose? //Well I have, for the Fourth-month showers have, and the mica on the //side of a rock has.//Do you take it I would astonish? //Does the daylight astonish? does the early redstart twittering //through the woods? //Do I astonish more than they?//This hour I tell things in confidence, //
I might not tell everybody, but I will tell you.
