ART OF EUROPE

Federico Garcia Lorca - Debussy

   My shadow glides in silence
over the watercourse.

   On account of my shadow
the frogs are deprived of stars.

   The shadow sends my body
reflections of quiet things.

   My shadow moves like a huge
violet-colored mosquito.

   A hundred crickets are trying
to gild the glow of the reeds.

   A glow arises in my breast,
the one mirrored in the water.
