by Federico García Lorca (1898 - 1936)
Debussy
Language: Spanish (Español)
Mi sombra va silenciosa por el agua de la acecia. Por mi sombra están las ranas privadas de las estrellas. La sombra manda a mi cuerpo reflejos de cosas quietas. Mi sombra va como inmenso cínife color violeta. Cien grillos quieren dorar la luz de la cañavera. Una luz nace en mi pecho, reflejado, de la acequia.
