by Federico García Lorca (1898 - 1936)
Sobre el cielo
Language: Spanish (Español)
Sobre el cielo de las margaritas ando. Yo la imagino esta tarde que soy santo. Me pusieron la luna en las manos. Yo la puse otra vez en los espacios y el Señor me premió con la rosa y el halo. Sobre el cielo de las margaritas ando. Y ahora voy por este campo a librar a las niñas de galanes malos y dar monedas de oro a todos los muchachos. Sobre el cielo de las margaritas ando.
