Cinco Soledades

Song Cycle by Elisenda Fábregas (b. 1955)

1. Desnuda está la tierra...  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: Spanish (Español) 
Desnuda está la tierra,
y el alma aúlla al horizonte pálido
como loba famélica. ¿Qué buscas,
poeta, en el ocaso? 

¡Amargo caminar, porque el camino
pesa en el corazón!.¡ El viento helado,
y la noche que llega, y la amargura
de la distancia!... En el camino blanco 

algunos yertos árboles negrean;
en los montes lejanos
hay oro y sangre... El sol murió... ¿Qué buscas, 
poeta, en el ocaso? 

Text Authorship:

  • by António Machado (1875 - 1939), "Desnuda está la tierra"
