Que soy niña y tengo miedo
Language: Spanish (Español) 
Ten, Amor, el arco quedo,
Que soy niña, y tengo miedo.

Dicen que amor ha vencido
A las deidades mayores,
y que de sus pasadores,
Cielo y tierra está ofendido;
Y habiendo aquesto sabido
No es mucho temer su enredo,
Que soy niña, y tengo miedo.

Unos dicen el estrago,
Que en Píramo y Tisbe hiciste;
Otros cuán tirano fuiste
Con la reina de Cartago;
Y viendo que das tal pago,
Atemorizada quedo,
Que soy niña, y tengo miedo.

No es, Amor, mi condición
para sufrir tus temores,
Tus engaños, tus terrores,
Tus celos y compasión;
Y en esta jurisdicción
No me cogerás, si puedo,
Que soy niña, y tengo miedo.
