Tribute to Lolita Lebron
Plenitude of Light
Lyrics: Lolita Lebron
Music: Rafael Manriquez / Grupo Raiz
What plenitude of light lies in the shadow!
Warbling, the bird shows within the radiance
Its coral face like an angelical dove.
It sings a clear note in the twilight.
Like a cherub in the ecstasy of the lotus.
What fragrant aroma on the hill!
The green grass, fresh and moist
And the chalice of the earth overflow
Onto the slope that rests in the light.
All is ready for the intoxicated course
Of light and song and aroma...
On the slope my breast is restored
In the subtle ecstasy of the poppy
My eye looks at the sun and it hoists
The luminous honeycomb of Borinquen ...
And from the chalice of the land drinks the nectar
Of the dovecote which it swings from the shadow.
Song: Plenitude of light / Plenitud de Luz
