by Federico García Lorca (1898 - 1936)

El poeta habla por teléfono con el amor
Language: Spanish (Español) 
Tu voz regó la duna de mi pecho
en la dulce cabina de madera.
Por el sur de mis pies fue primavera
y’al norte de mi frente fl or de’helecho.
Pino de luz por el espacio estrecho
cantó sin alborada y sementera
y mi llanto prendió por vez primera
coronas de’esperanza por el techo.
Dulce y lejana voz por mí vertida.
Dulce y lejana voz por mí gustada.
Lejana y dulce voz amortecida.
Lejana como’oscura corza’herida.
Dulce como’un sollozo en la nevada.
¡Lejana y dulce en tuétano metida!
