Romancillo
Language:
Spanish
[Que]1 por mayo era, por mayo,
Cuando hace la calor,
Cuando los trigos [encallan]2
Y están los campos en flor;
Cuando canta la calandria
Y responde el ruiseñor,
Cuando los enamorados
Van a servir al amor.
[Menos]3 yo, ¡triste cuitado!
Que vivo en esta prisión,
Que ni sé cuándo es de día,
Ni cuándo las noches son,
Sino por una [avecica]4
Que me cantaba al albor -
Matómela un ballestero ...
¡[Dios le dé]5 mal galardón!
