Symbol of luck, strength
but also prosperity,
You are my purple pomegranate,
fruit of well-being.
Since ancient times,
known, your treasure,
offers fertility
and luck to your fruit.
They break you on New Year's Eve
and you bring abundance,
you spread hope and joy,
but also good luck.
Symbol of Rebirth
and also Death,
whoever tastes your seeds,
his heart rejoices.
Pluto fell in love
Demeter's daughter,
Persephone the little one,
He set his bow in the Darkness,
He grabbed her with his chariot
because he was enchanted.
From so much beauty,
The poor man went blind.
My poor Persephone,
where you were picking flowers,
Hades kidnapped you.
and the songs stopped.
As if your mother knew
started to cry,
that your own beauty
He stopped looking.
And so the Earth sweltered
and it did not bear fruit,
after the mother her daughter
He mourned with sobs.
As soon as Zeus heard
the mother's mourning,
orders release,
like a worthy father.
But Pluto is ruthless
gives to Persephone,
pomegranate seeds
and then he frees her.
But the seeds of the pomegranate
I guess they had a spell,
the mourning subsided
and the oaths were taken.
And so everyone agreed
that Persephone,
in six months he will be on earth
and six in the threshing floor of Hades.
