An Old Spanish Love Song
'If you are my sweetheart, why won't you look at me, pray?'
'Eyes I had to look at thee, to the shadow I gave them.'
'If you are my sweetheart, why won't you kiss me, pray?'
'Lips I had to kiss thee, to the earth I gave them.'
'If you are my sweetheart, why won't you embrace me, pray?'
'Arms I had to embrace thee, with worms I covered them.'
- Federico Garcia Lorca
