CASTILIAN BODY, by                    
First Line: When the wind curves the willows
Last Line: Is it not you who touches me on the shoulder?


WHEN the wind curves the willows;
When a Castilian body bends,
Is it not you who touches me on the shoulder?

In the Sierra Morena,
An old woman,
Crying over old memories,
Told me strange things about lovers.

When the waves sway as dancers;
When the wind curves the willows,
Is it not you who touches me on the shoulder?
