La barque de l'amour
Language: Spanish (Español)
Bio! que mi tambo lo tengo en el rio Piragua jerizari zagua En una piragua bella Toda la popa dorada La proa de azul y plata Iba la madre deamor El dulce niño asus plantas El arco en la mano lleva Flechas al ayre disparas El rio se Vuelve fuego De las olas salen llamas A la tierra hermosas indias Que anda el amor en las aguas!

La barque de l'amour
Language: French (Français) after the Spanish (Español)
Gare! Du plaisir qui t'appelle, Redoute la suite cruelle! Gare! Jouvencelle! Conduisant sa barque frêle Dont la poupe d'or ruisselle Des déesses la plus belle doucement vers nous voguait Le dieu d'amour est près d'elle, Prèt à déployer son aîle, L'arc en sa main étincelle Et sur les eaux darde son trait Autour d'eux tout est en flamme L'onde bouillonne et s'enflamme, Belle imprudente rentrez au port, Ou le forban vous prend à son bord
