Song of the Dead Orange Tree
 Woodcutter.Cut down my shadow.Deliver me from the tormentof bearing no fruit. Why was I born among mirrors?Day turns round and round me.And night copies mein all her stars. Let me live unmirroredAnd then let me dreamthat ants and thistledownare my leaves and my birds. Woodcutter.Cut down my shadow.Deliver me from the tormentof bearing no fruit.

Song of the Dead Orange Tree


Woodcutter.
Cut down my shadow.
Deliver me from the torment
of bearing no fruit.

Why was I born among mirrors?
Day turns round and round me.
And night copies me
in all her stars.

Let me live unmirrored
And then let me dream
that ants and thistledown
are my leaves and my birds.

Woodcutter.
Cut down my shadow.
Deliver me from the torment
of bearing no fruit.

–Federico Garcia Lorca
