by Federico García Lorca (1898 - 1936)
Madrugada
Language: Spanish (Español)
Pero como el amor los saeteros están ciegos. Sobre la noche verde, las saetas dejan rastros de lirio caliente. La quilla de la luna rompe nubes moradas y las aljabas se llenan de rocío. ¡Ay, pero como el amor los saeteros están ciegos!
