Dawn
Bells of Córdoba
in the early hours.
Bells of dawn
in Granada.
They hear you,
all the girls who cry
for the tender Soleá in mourning.
The girls
of Audalusia the High
and the Low.
Young girls of Spain
with tiny feet
and trembling skirts
who’ve filled the crossroads
with lights.
On, bells of Córdoba
in the early hours,
and oh, bells of dawn
in Granada!
— Federico Garcia Lorca
