The mission of Eastfield College is to provide excellence in teaching and learning.
Por Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer
The obscure swallows return, they have nests on the balcony.
And another time they are on the wing, they have learned our names. When we get too close, they will not return.
The thick honeysuckle will return to climb the garden walls and later they will finally be more beautiful, their flowers will open, they will be covered with dewdrops and will tremble and fall like tears from the day. These will not open.
They will return, the love, on hearing the words burning to the sound of your heart, your profound dreams will perhaps awaken.
But silent and absorbed in thought on your knees as if adoring God at the altar,
Like I have wanted you…no, don’t deceive yourself, so I will not want you.
The thick honeysuckle (flowers) come but not to stay.
Dew like tears come to perform natures requirement in life.
Love comes to the heart of all things as a profound dream.
Life has its way – all things have a beginning and a certain time to leave
We pray to remain but it is of no use
Dicha – happiness
Por dicha – by chance
Aun – yet
Colgar – to take
Llamaran – they will call
Hermossura – beauty, graceful
Sonar –sound
Profundo – deep
Mudo – dumb, silent, still, mute
Absortu- amazed, absorbed in thought
Asi – so, thus
