Las acacias
Language: Spanish (Español)
Our translations: GER
Las acacias blancas son A la vera del camino Como un viejo peregrino Apoyado en su bordón. Y las acacias rosadas, Manos gráciles tendidas Para coronar las vidas Con guirnaldas perfumadas! ¡Quien pudiera ser acacia Y en la senda del amor Deshojarse en lenta gracia, Fibra a fibra, flor a flor!
