Vila the White, Built a City up height, Not in the Heavens, not on the ground, But on the edge of a Cloud, Vila the White, Put defenses the bright: Gold defends the heights, Sun defends the gate, Moon defends the City when it's late, Vila the White, Stood with Sun at sight, Watching what comes from the bay, And saw Lightning and Thunder play, Vila the White, Wed her son on Moon at night, And gave her daughter to Gold, as bride, They have couple brothers, she's their brother's wife.

About This Quote

Vila the White is a poetic name for the city in the sky. It has many meanings, but in this particular verse it's describing Vila's city on the edge of the cloud, in the sky. "Vila" in Spanish means white. It seems to imply that in some way this city is white.

The second line is "built a city up height," which also seems to imply that Vila is building up something. And third, "not in the Heavens, not on the ground, but on the edge of a cloud." This part describes how his city is not built on the ground or in the sky, but instead it is built up on the edge of a cloud. The fourth line talks about how Vila has put defenses into place to protect his city from danger.

This defense is "gold defends the heights." The sun contributes to these defenses with its power. The moon protects this city at night when it is dark and gives light to all of its inhabitants during this time. The fifth line talks about how Vila stood with her husband at sight watching what comes from the bay and saw lightning and thunder play together as they played around each other and were happy and cheerful and no one dared say anything bad about them because they were family and they loved one another without any condition or limitation.I hope you guys enjoyed reading this!
