Después de Pasar

Language: Spanish

Los niños miran
un punto lejano. 
Los candiles se apagan.
Unas muchachas ciegas
preguntan a la luna,
y por el aire ascienden
espirales de llanto. 
Las montañas miran
un punto lejano

After the Passing

Language: English

The children gaze
at a point far, far away.
The oil lamps are extinguished.
Some blind girls
question the moon,
and through the air rise
spirals of tears.
The mountains gaze
at a point far, far away.


From the Cavallaro score.
