  • Joan Baez Gacela of the Dark Death Lyrics

           

    I want to sleep the dream of the apples
    To withdraw from the tumult of cemeteries
    I want to sleep the dream of that child
    Who wanted to cut his heart on the high seas
    I don't want to hear again that the dead do not lose their blood
    That the putrid mouth goes on asking for water
    I don't want to learn of the tortures of the grass
    Nor of the moon with the serpent's mouth that labors before dawn
    I want to sleep a while
    A while, a minute, a century
    But all must know that I have not died
    That there is a stable of gold in my lips
    That I am the small friend of the west wind
    That I am the immense shadow of my tears
    Cover me at dawn with a veil
    Because dawn will throw fists full of ants at me
    And wet with hard water my shoes
    So that the pincers of the scorpion slide
    For I want to sleep the dream of the apples
    To learn a lament that will cleanse me of the earth
    For I want to live with that dark child
    Who wanted to cut his heart on the high seas
