"Romance Sonambulo"

Green, how I want you green.
Green wind. Green branches.
The ship out on the sea
and the horse on the mountain.
With the shade around her waist
she dreams on her balcony,
green flesh, her hair green,
with eyes of cold silver.
Green, how I want you green.
Under the gypsy moon,
all things are watching her
and she cannot see them.

Green, how I want you green.
Big hoarfrost stars
come with the fish of shadow
that opens the road of dawn.
The fig tree rubs its wind
with the sandpaper of its branches,
and the forest, cunning cat,
bristles its brittle fibers.
But who will come? And from where?
She is still on her balcony
green flesh, her hair green,
dreaming in the bitter sea. — My friend, I want to trade
my horse for her house,
my saddle for her mirror,
my knife for her blanket.
My friend, I come bleeding
from the gates of Cabra. — If it were possible, my boy,
I’d help you fix that trade.
But now I am not I,
nor is my house now my house. — My friend, I want to die
decently in my bed.
Of iron, if that’s possible,
with blankets of fine chambray.
Don’t you see the wound I have
from my chest up to my throat? — Your white shirt has grown
thirsty dark brown roses.
Your blood oozes and flees a
round the corners of your sash.
But now I am not I,
nor is my house now my house. — Let me climb up, at least,
up to the high balconies;
Let me climb up! Let me,
up to the green balconies.
Railings of the moon
through which the water rumbles.

Now the two friends climb up,
up to the high balconies.
Leaving a trail of blood.
Leaving a trail of teardrops.
Tin bell vines
were trembling on the roofs.
A thousand crystal tambourines
struck at the dawn light.

Green, how I want you green,
green wind, green branches.
The two friends climbed up.
The stiff wind left
in their mouths, a strange taste
of bile, of mint, and of basil
My friend, where is she — tell me — where is your bitter girl?
How many times she waited for you!
How many times would she wait for you,
cool face, blac

درون هر چيزي رازي است و شعر، راز تمام چيزهاست

"شکل‌های ناب که غرق شدند
،زیرِ جیرجیرِ گل‌های مروارید
.فهمیدم که مرا کشته‌اند

،کافه‌ها را گشته بودند به‌خاطرِ من، گورستان‌ها را، و کلیساها را
،از سرِ کنج‌ کاوی بشکه‌ها و گنجه‌ها را گشوده بودند
.سه اسکلت را نابود کردند که دندان‌های طلای‌شان را درآورند

.اما دیگر پیدایم نکردند
پیدا نکردند؟
.نه، پیدایم نکردند

،اما فهمیدند که ماهِ هفتم از برابرِ سیلاب گریخته است
و دریا ـ ناگهان! ـ به یاد آورد نامِ همه ‌ی آن ‌ها را که غرق شده بودند

قسمتی از شعر معروف «افسانه‌ی سه دوست که زیرِ بارانِ گلوله آواز خواندند» که گفته می شود "لورکا" در آن نحوه مرگش را پیش بینی کرده بود"
