Cautiva
Por las ramas
indecisas
iba una doncella
que era la vida.
Por las ramas
indecisas.
Con un espejito
reflejaba el día
que era un resplandor
de su frente limpia.
Por las ramas
indecisas.
Sobre las tinieblas
andaba perdida,
llorando rocío,
del tiempo cautiva.
Por las ramas
indecisas.
The prisoner
Through the indecisive
branches
went a girl
who was life.
Through the indecisive
branches.
She reflected daylight,
with a tiny mirror,
which was the splendour,
of her unclouded forehead.
Through the indecisive
branches.
In the dark of night,
lost, she wandered,
weeping the dew,
of this imprisoned time.
Through the indecisive
branches.
