Dulces árboles sombrosos
Language: Spanish (Español)
Lucrecia y Melibea Dulces árboles sombrosos, humillaos cuando veays aquellos ojos graciosos del que tanto desseays. Estrellas que relumbrays, norte e lucero del dia, ¿por qué no le despertays si düerme mi alegria? MELIBEA Oyeme tú, por mi vida, que yo quiero cantar sola. Papagayos, ruyseñores, que cantays al alvorada, llevad nueva a mis amores, como espero aqui asentada. La media noche es passada, e no viene. Sabedme si hay otra amada quel detiene.
