Mucho ha que el alma duerme
Language: Spanish (Español) 
Choose for Diff
Mucho ha que el alma duerme,
bien será que recuede.
Duerme sueño tan pasado
que como muerta cayó
luego que la adormeció
el veneno del pecado:
y pues el sol deseado
en los ojos ya le hiere,
bien será que recuerde.
Si ángeles no han podido
despertarla con cantar,
despierte, oyendo llorar
á Dios por ella nacido:
muy larga noche ha dormido,
y pues tal dia le viene,
bien será que recuerde.
