Homage to Lope Vega
Song Cycle by Joaquín Turina (1882 - 1949)
View original-language texts alone: Homenaje a Lope Vega, op. 90
Cuando tan hermosa os miro De amor suspiro, Y cuando no os veo, Suspira por mí el deseo. Cuando mis ojos es ven Van a gozar tanto bien; Más como por su desdén De los vuestros me retiro, De amor suspiro; Y cuando no os veo, Suspiro por mi deseo.

Si con mis deseos Los tiempos caminaran, Al sol aventajaran Los pasos giganteos, Y mis dulces empleos Celebrará Sevilla, Sin envidiar celosa Amante venturosa La regalada y tierna tortolilla, Que con arrullos roncos Tálamos hace de los huecos troncos.

If with my desires time were to walk along, giant steps will then surpass even the sun, and Seville shall celebrate my sweet labors, without a fortunate lover jealously envying me, that tender turtledove I received as a gift. So with shrill cooings this turtledove shall make a marriage bed out of hollow trunks.

Al val de Fuente Ovejuna La niña en cabellos baja, El caballero la sigue De la Cruz de Calatrava. Entre las ramas se esconde, De vergonzosa y turbada, Fingiendo que no le ha visto, Pone delante las ramas. "¿Para qué te escondes Niña gallarda? Que mis linces deseos Paredes pasan." Acercóse el caballero, Y ella, confusa y turbada, Hacer quiso celosías De las intrincadas ramas, Mas como quien tiene amor Los mares y las montañas Atraviesa fácilimente, La dice tales palabras. "¿Para qué te escondes Niña gallarda? Que mis linces deseos Paredes pasan."
