Come from the Darro!—changed is its tone;
Come where the streams no bondage have known;
Wildly and proudly foaming they leap,
Singing of freedom from steep to steep.
Come from Alhambra!—garden and grove
Now may not shelter beauty or love.
Blood on the waters! death midst the flowers!
—Only the spear and the rock are ours.
[409] The Zorzico is an extremely wild and singularly antique Moorish melody.
