Mucho ha que el alma duerme
Language: Spanish (Español) 
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.
