LA ESPERA
Waiting
WAITING
Wait my soul and my feelings, that will come the time of my youth.
The empty courtyard I watch yearning, the flowers have gone with daybreak..
Flashing up the white of the walls and makes me blind the splendour.
I wait motionless and quite, that comes the breeze of its scents.
That fill up with aroma and colours and shine grandiose on the balconies.
During ... I wait with impatience, that open the doors and the lattices.
For filling up my soul and its corners with breeze, scent, colours and flowers.
That they fill up my empty courtyard!
And weep the waiting with the dew.

SOÑANDO EN LOS JARDINES DE LA ALHAMBRA
Dreaming in the Gardens of the Alhambra
DREAMING IN THE GARDENS OF THE ALHAMBRA
You have taken me into a garden of dreams in which I entered with roses without thorns.
Hiding behind dense bushes, the saying and contradiction of your lies.
More that I am sleepy, I wake up ocasionally and I notice the darkest of your passions.
Jealousy, jealousy, jealousy ...............
Jealousy until yet hidden and they show up driven to despair.
Don't fear my love my illusions, fear more my desillusions.
I do not like to err again ......
I only desire to love you with passion, love you, love you, love you.

LA HONRA DE LA GITANA
The Gypsy's Honour
THE GYPSY'S HONOUR
The head-scarf with four roses
attached to each corner
and in the center of the scarf
your honour the flower most loved.
A gift of innocence
that the young gypsy gives as a present with much pride
to her favourite person.
They wait outside
and comes out the good new
to tear apart the shirts
with noise and mock start the singing and festivities of the
gypsies in festival.

LA ALHAMBRA A LA ATARDECER
The Alhambra at Dusk
THE ALHAMBRA AT DUSK
At whatever dusk
from the elevated hill.
The Alhambra proudly divides
the city of Granada.
Granada compliant at its feet
bewitched, amorous.
From de spell and magic
of the Alhambra of Granada.

EL ENLACE (MI CABALLO LAZLOS)
The Connection - My Horse Lazlos
THE CONNECTION - MI HORSE LAZLOS
Unfolding his mighty wings
flies the falcon in the sky.
In its claws brings attached
two branches of rosemary
two of olive and mint
and two velvet roses.
It is the purest present
and it delivers from the sky.
And the moon awaits us
for the reunion with Lazlos.
