The Gypsy and the Wind
Playing her parchment moon
Precosia comes
along a watery path of laurels and crystal lights.

The starless silence, fleeing
from her rhythmic tambourine,
falls where the sea whips and sings,
his night filled with silvery swarms.

High atop the mountain peaks
the sentinels are weeping;
they guard the tall white towers
of the English consulate.

And gypsies of the water
for their pleasure erect
little castles of conch shells
and arbors of greening pine.


Playing her parchment moon
Precosia comes.

The wind sees her and rises,
the wind that never slumbers.

Naked Saint Christopher swells,
watching the girl as he plays
with tongues of celestial bells
on an invisible bagpipe.


Gypsy, let me lift your skirt
and have a look at you.

Open in my ancient fingers
the blue rose of your womb.


Precosia throws the tambourine
and runs away in terror.

But the virile wind pursues her
with his breathing and burning sword.


The sea darkens and roars,
while the olive trees turn pale.

The flutes of darkness sound,
and a muted gong of the snow.


Precosia, run, Precosia!
Or the green wind will catch you!
Precosia, run, Precosia!
And look how fast he comes!
A satyr of low-born stars
with their long and glistening tongues.


Precosia, filled with fear,
now makes her way to that house
beyond the tall green pines
where the English consul lives.


Alarmed by the anguished cries,
three riflemen come running,
their black capes tightly drawn,
and berets down over their brow.


The Englishman gives the gypsy
a glass of tepid milk
and a shot of Holland gin
which Precosia does not drink.


And while she tells them, weeping,
of her strange adventure,
the wind furiously gnashes
against the slate roof tiles.
