Partir quiero yo
Language:
Spanish
Partir quiero yo
mas no del querer,
que no puede ser.
El triste que quiere
partir y se va,
adonde estuviere
sin sí vivirá:
mas no que pondrá
en otra el querer,
que no puede ser.
De aqueste partir
mi gloria procede:
partiendo morir
la vida bien puede,
mas no que no quede
con vos el querer,
que no puede ser.

No, that can never be!
Language:
English
Yes! I must leave, -- O, yes!
But not the thoughts of thee;
For that can never be!
To absence, loneliness,
'Tis vain, -- 'tis vain to flee;
I see thee not the less,
When memory's shades I see;
And how can I repress
The rising thoughts of thee?
No, that can never be!
Yet must I leave; -- the grave
Shall be a home for me,
Where fettered grief shall have
A portion with the free.
I other than a slave
To thy strange witchery
Can never, never be!
