The brave lagoon

 

To see the brave lagoon

I left the house of a muleteer

I whanted him to guided me

well to pay him with money.

Forgive, Mister - he told me.

Taking off my hat,

but I don't guide to that lagoon

neither Creole neither outsider.

- If the offer is little I said -

double sinks I promise.

Give me, a lot of food to was

He answeredme I don't accept it.

Obstinate you are I told him friend.

Excusóse with respect,

and he said: Me in adventures of this kind

I don't enter.

Know, because he doesn't leave

of my resentful treatment,

that of such trip they don't return

always all those that have gone,

because more jealous hill

there has never been,

as much as but if who climbs him

of this valley it is not been born.

Overturning that hill

of that snowy summit,

the lagoon is sighted,

half to half of the hill.

Under the crystalline water

for the curled winds,

giant's eye is

that it attracts with the look.

When bad the water sleeps

for influence of the moon,

if they survey it from the high one

the lagoon is grown impatient;

and a powerful bellow,

as of pack toruna,

it is sign that the onlooker

outsider importunes her.

The pattern gives these country properties

there was the river of increasing,

with waters of that lagoon

for their vineyards to water.

Llevóse picks and shovels,

it ordered their peons to dig;

in person, resolved,

he also began to poke.

The lagoon got angry,

then it send .

The pattern fell for earth

broken down unexpectedly.

They felt to bellow the hill,

patent the charm was!

With which, ask to the pattern

if to return to the hill wanted.

Return
