What, but love, then, on a feel cloudy day?
A little poetry, romance and thoughts of spring.
Le pregunté a mi estudiante, Belén, qué tal se sentía al llegar a clase. Acordándose de su vocabulario del clima en inglés me hizo sonreír, cuando acertadamente declaró, "Me siento nublado."
¿Qué entonces, sino el amor en un día de sentirse nublado?
Un poco de poesía, romance y pensamientos de primavera.
C. Marlowe
V. The Passionate Shepherd to His Love
COME live with me and be my Love,
And we will all the pleasures prove
That hills and valleys, dale and field,
And all the craggy mountains yield.
And see the shepherds feed their flocks,
By shallow rivers, to whose falls
Melodious birds sing madrigals.
There will I make thee beds of roses
And a thousand fragrant posies,
A cap of flowers, and a kirtle
Embroider'd all with leaves of myrtle.
Which from our pretty lambs we pull,
Fair linèd slippers for the cold,
With buckles of the purest gold.
A belt of straw and ivy buds
With coral clasps and amber studs:
And if these pleasures may thee move,
Come live with me and be my Love.
Peruvian bracelets and Polaroid in hand to capture the moment. En pulseras peruanas captura el momento con su Polaroid. |
As precious as the gods do eat,
Shall on an ivory table be
Prepared each day for thee and me.
The shepherd swains shall dance and sing
For thy delight each May-morning:
If these delights thy mind may move,
Then live with me and be my Love.
Francis T. Palgrave, ed. (1824–1897). The Golden Treasury. 1875.
