Cantiga

Language: Spanish

 Muy Graciosa es la doncella.

 Digas tú el caballero
 que las armas vestías
 si el caballo o las armas
 o la guerra es tan bella.

 Digas tú el marinero
 que en tus naves vivías
 si la nave o la vela
 o la estrella es tan bella.

 Digas tú el pastorcico
 que el ganadico guardas
 si el ganado o los valles
 o la sierra es tan bella.

 Muy Graciosa es la doncella.
