Quatre madrigaux d'amour
Translations © by Guy Laffaille
Song Cycle by Joaquín Rodrigo Vidre (1901 - 1999)
View original-language texts alone: Cuatro madrigales amatorios
¿Con qué la lavaré la tez de la mi cara? ¿Con qué la lavaré, Que vivo mal penada? Lávanse las casadas con agua de limones: lávome yo, cuitada, con penas y dolores.
Avec quoi puis-je laver La peau de mon visage ? Avec quoi puis-je laver, Moi qui vis dans le tourment ? Les femmes mariées lavent Avec de l'eau citronnée ; Mais moi, malheureuse, je dois laver Avec des chagrins et des peines.

Vos me matásteis, niña en cabello, vos me habéis muerto. Riberas de un río ví moza vírgen, Niña en cabello, vos me matásteis, Niña en cabello, vos me habéis muerto.
Vous m'avez détruit, Fille aux cheveux au vent, Vous m'avez donné la mort. Sur les rives de la rivière, Je vous ai vue, jeune vierge, Fille aux cheveux au vent, Vous m'avez détruit, Fille aux cheveux au vent, Vous m'avez donné la mort.

¿De dónde venís, amore? Bien sé yo de dónde. ¿De dónde venís, amigo? Fuere yo testigo!
D'où viens-tu, amour ? Je sais bien d'où. D'où viens-tu, amour ? Je voudrais être témoin !

De los álamos vengo, madre, de ver cómo los menea el aire. De los álamos de Sevilla, de ver a mi linda amiga,
Je viens des peupliers, mère, Où je les ai vus se balancer Je viens des peupliers de Séville, Où j'ai vue ma tendre bien-aimée.
