Project Description

“Good lady of Son Vaquer,
You should rush right now,
Because your daughter has
A lizard stuck to her.
In the Son Oms hills,
They’ve put up a lighthouse
To cast some light
On where the lizards are buried.
A certain Miquel Garrover,
From Son Vaquer,
Told everyone he knew
That Francesc Pelut had
Twenty lizards in a piece of paper.
Many were from Sant Joan,
And thirty from Montuïri;
Nobody pushed,
But they threw lizards about.
‘Good lady of Son Vaquer,
What did you do with the lizards?’
‘We made sausages out of them
Just like when my son-in-law comes.’ …”
