Danza
Language: Spanish (Español)
En la noche del huerto seis gitanas vestidas de blanco bailan. En la noche del huerto, coronadas con rosas de papel y biznagas. En la noche del huerto sus dientes de nácar, escriben la sombra quemada. Y en la noche del huerto sus sombras se alargan, y llegan hasta el cielo moradas.
