Abandoned villages of Galicia
Gallician land - a piece of Celtic kingdom,
That's rooting deeply into the past;
But now it is loosing originality and wisdom,
Ghost villages stand still - wind scatters dust.
The silent buildings are made of local slates -
These homesteads are covered with ancient tiles;
And towering chimneys puffing fairytales...-
The sadness dominates for miles and miles.
And now settlements - forsaken and abandoned,
Green woods are coming down from the hills,
Envading legacy of the ascendants,
Today - it's realm of deer, wolves and minks.
What's waiting for this debris of Doom?
Church bell for them is talling sadly;
Last residents and numerous old tombs -
Are everything, what's left of Spanish Celtia.
