Daybreak
Verde que te quiero verde. // Green, how I want you, green.
Verde viento. Verde ramas. // Green wind. Green branches.
El barco sobre la mar // The ship out at sea
y el caballo en la montaña. // and the horse upon the mountain.
Con la sombra en la cintura // With the shadow on her waist
ella sueña en su baranda, // she dreams on her balcony,
verde carne, pelo verde, // flesh green, hair green,
con ojos de fría plata. // with eyes of cold silver.
Verde que te quiero verde. // Green, how I want you, green.
Bajo la luna gitana, // Beneath the gypsy moon,
las cosas la están mirando // all are watching her
y ella no puede mirarlas. // and she cannot see them.
— Federico García Lorca (1898-1936)
from “Romance Sonámbulo”
“The desert and the garden are ever side by side.”
— Washington Irving (1783-1859)
