Elegías

Algunas de las más hermosas elegías :
. Funeral blues del poeta inglés W.H. Auden recitada en la película Cuatro bodas y un funeral.



Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone,

Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone,

Silence the pianos and with muffled drum

Bring out the coffin, let the mourners come.

Let aeroplanes circle moaning overhead

Scribbling on the sky the message He is Dead.

Put crepe bows round the white necks of the public doves,

Let the traffic policemen wear black cotton gloves.

He was my North, my South, my East and West,

My working week and my Sunday rest,

My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song;

I thought that love would last forever: I was wrong.

The stars are not wanted now; put out every one,

Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun,

Pour away the ocean and sweep up the woods;

For nothing now can ever come to any good.

. Ojalá de Silvio Rodríguez



. Elegía a Ramón Sijé de Miguel Hernández. Escuchamos la versión musicada de Serrat.
