SONG TREE ...by Federico Garcia Lorca.

SONG TREE 

by Federico Garcia Lorca.

Rod of voice and gesture,

once and Again

trembles without hope

in yesterday's air.

The girl sighing

I wanted to take it;

but it always came

a minute later.

Ay sun! Oh moon, moon!

A minute later.

Sixty gray flowers

They tangled their feet.

See how it rocks

once and Again,

Virgin of flower and branch,

in yesterday's air.
