6. POEM BY FEDERICO GARCIA LORCA
Love of my bowels, living death,
in vain I hope your written word
and I think, with flower fades,
if I live without me want to lose you.
The air is immortal. The inert stone
neither knows nor shadow avoided.
Inner heart does not need
Frost poured honey moon.
But I suffered. I tore my veins,
tiger and dove on your waist
Duelling bites and lilies.
Fill my word for madness
or let me live in my serene
night dark soul forever.
Love of my bowels, living death.

7. TRANSLATION
Amor de mis entrañas, viva muerte,
en vano espero tu palabra escrita
y pienso, con la flor que se marchita,
que si vivo sin mí quiero perderte.
El aire es inmortal. La piedra inerte
ni conoce la sombra ni la evita.
Corazón interior no necesita
la miel helada que la luna vierte.
Pero yo te sufrí. Rasgué mis venas,
tigre y paloma, sobre tu cintura
en duelo de mordiscos y azucenas.
Llena pues de palabras mi locura
o déjame vivir en mi serena
noche del alma para siempre oscura.
Amor de mis entrañas, viva muerte.
