Light and dark, the river sings!
Language: English after the Spanish (Español)
Light and dark, the river sings! How are you playing so much? And the leaves with dew They are green eyes crying! What heavenly music are heard in these parts; whispers of banana trees and wild pigeons! Among the Gallic mountains each thing is a lyre: the dove that sighs It's a madrigal with wings!
