La Alhambra of Granada, (Spain)

Palace from before the XV century, actually is Cultural Heritage of the Humanity. My poem has been inspired by a king that used to live there in the XV century, he was a muslim and he was in love with a Spanish Christian girl. Difficult years for their love.


 

The full moon shines over Granada. It lights up the beauty of The Alhambra, and its amazing gardens. A long time ago a palace, where a sad prince used to live. Far from his beloved princess, whose love would never be allowed because of their different beliefs. It is said that sometimes, you can hear the prince crying, hidden somewhere inside of the palace. It is said that sometimes, you still can see those lovers loving each other under the moonlight, in the stunning gardens of The Alhambra. There, where the years seem to be stopped with the youth of the sad lovers, whose souls live trapped somewhere in those enchanted gardens.
