A giant with blue eyesUn gigante de ojos azules
loved a small womanamaba a una mujer pequeña
who very soon got tiredque muy pronto ya se ha cansado
of such an immense taskde tan desmesurada empresa
that didn't end in gardensque no terminaba en jardines
gardens with honeysuckles.jardines con madreselvas.

Goodbye blue eyes, she said,Adios ojos azules, dijo,
And with grace, she did a somersaultY con gracia muy voltereta
from the arm of a rich dwarfdel brazo de un enano rico
she entered the little houseentró en la casita pequeña
that had a garden on the frontque en el frente tenía un jardín
a garden with honeysuckles.un jardín con madreselvas.

The giant now understandsEl gigante comprende ahora
that loves of such greatnessque amores de tanta grandeza
cannot even fit, not even dead,no caben ni siquiera muertos
in those dollhousesen esas casas de muñecas
that have gardens on the frontque en el frente tienen jardines
gardens with honeysuckles.jardines con madreselvas.
