Con dos cuydados guerreo
Language: Spanish (Español)
Con dos cuidados guerreo Que me dan pena y suspiro; El uno cuando no os veo! El otro cuando vos miro! Mirándoos de amores, muero Sin me poder remediar. No os mirando, desespero Por tornaros á mirar. Lo uno crece el suspiro, Lo otro causa deseo Del que peno cuando os miro, Y muero cuando no os veo.

Ach, ein zwiefach bittres Leiden
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the Spanish (Español)
Ach, ein zwiefach bittres Leiden, Ueberwältigt hat es mich: Eines, wenn ich dich muß meiden, Und das andre, seh' ich dich. Seh' ich dich, vor Liebe sterb' ich, Rettungslos muß ich vergehn; Meid' ich dich, o so verderb' ich Vor Verlangen, dich zu sehn! Jenes schafft mir tausend Leiden, Dieses schafft mir tausend Weh'n; Weil's mich schmerzet dich zu sehn, Und mich tödtet, dich zu meiden.
