Pablo Neruda - The Fickle One

Pablo Neruda - The Fickle One

My eyes went away from me br Following a dark girl who went by. br br She was made of black motherofpearl br Made of darkpurple grapes, br And she lashed my blood br With her tail of fire. br br After them all I go. br br A pale blonde went by br Like a golden plant br Swaying her gifts. br And my mouth went br Like a wave br Discharging on her breast br Lightningbolts of blood. br br After them all I go. br br But to you, without my moving, br Without seeing you, distant you, br Go my blood and my kisses, br My dark one and my fair one, br My broad one and my slender one, br My ugly one, my beauty, br Made of all the gold br And of all the silver, br Made of all the wheat br And of all the earth, br Made of all the water br Of sea waves, br Made for my arms br Made for my kisses, br Made for my soul.
