My shadow glides in silence <br />over the watercourse. <br /> <br />On account of my shadow <br />the frogs are deprived of stars. <br /> <br />The shadow sends my body <br />reflections of quiet things. <br /> <br />My shadow moves like a huge <br />violet-colored mosquito. <br /> <br />A hundred crickets are trying <br />to gild the glow of the reeds. <br /> <br />A glow arises in my breast, <br />the one mirrored in the water.<br /><br />Federico García Lorca<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/debussy-in-english/
