No se enmendará jamás (The Spanish Cantata)
Language: Spanish (Español) 
Our translations:  ENG
Aria
 No se enmendará jamás
 de amaros mi corazón
 que culpas de la razón
 cada día crecen mas.

 Crecerá cada momento
 el quereros y enojaros,
 que este delito de amores
 todo es bello entendimiento.

Recitativo
 Si del quereros es causa
 y razón el conoceros
 a amarte cuanto mereces
 espero llegar un día,
 pues crecen en mí la porfía,
 amor y conocimiento;
 y si medir no quisieres
 mi amor, por tu perfección,
 escucha con que primor
 explica, callando
 sus ansias, amor.

Aria
 Dicente mis ojos,
 en muda pasión
 lastimas sin quejas
 palabras sin voz.

 Como solo amarte
 mi amor pretendió
 sólo de quererte
 bien pagado estoy.
