by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra (1547 - 1616)

Árboles, yerbas y plantas
Language: Spanish (Español) 
Árboles, yerbas y plantas
Que en aqueste sitio estáis,
Tan altos, verdes y tantas,
Si de mi mal no holgáis,
Escuchad mis quejas santas.
  Mi dolor no os alborote,
Aunque más terrible sea;
Pues, por pagaros escote,
Aquí lloró Don Quijote
Ausencias de Dulcinea
    del Toboso.
 
Es aquí el lugar adonde
El amador más leal
De su señora se esconde,
Y ha venido a tanto mal
Sin saber cómo o por dónde.
  Tráele amor al estricote,
Que es de muy mala ralea;
Y así, hasta henchir un pipote,
Aquí lloró Don Quijote
Ausencias de Dulcinea
    del Toboso.
 
Buscando las aventuras
Por entre las duras peñas,
Maldiciendo entrañas duras,
Que entre riscos y entre breñas
Halla el triste desventuras.
  Hirióle amor con su azote,
No con su blanda correa;
Y en tocándole el cogote,
Aquí lloró Don Quijote
Ausencias de Dulcinea
    del Toboso.
