by Lope Felix de Vega Carpio (1562 - 1635)
Translation by Paul Heyse (1830 - 1914)

No lloréis ojuelos
Language: Spanish (Español) 
Our translations:  ENG FRE GER
No lloréis, ojuelos, 
porque no es razón 
que llore de celos 
quien mata de amor. 

Quien puede matar 
no intente morir, 
si hace con reír 
más que con llorar. 

No lloréis ojuelos, 
porque no es razón 
que llore de celos 
quien mata de amor.

Weint nicht, ihr Äuglein!
Wie kann so trübe 
weinen vor Eifersucht,
wer tödtet durch Liebe?

Wer selbst Tod bringt,
der sollt' ihn ersehnen?
Sein Lächeln bezwingt
was trotzt seinen Tränen.

Wie kann so trübe

wer tödtet durch Liebe?
