by José de Cañizares (1676 - 1750)

Confiado jilguerillo
Language: Spanish (Español) 
Confiado jilguerillo 
mira como importuna 
de tu estado primero 
te derribó el amor y la fortuna, 
y el viento que tan ufano presumiste 
aún no le hallaste cuando le perdiste. 

Si de rama en rama 
si de flor en flor 
ibas saltando, 
bullendo, y cantando. 
¡Dichoso quien ama
las ansias de amor! 

Advierte que aprisa
es llanto la risa
y el gusto dolor.
