Cantada humana
Language: Spanish (Español) 
Recitado
 En la ribera verde
 Del patrio Manzanares,
 Así Marcelo canta
 A su adorado bien
 Quejas amantes.

Aria
 Máteme infiel tu poder,
 Mas no acabe de morir.
 No porque quiero vivir,
 Sino por más padecer,
 Que muerto podré querer
 Pero no podré sentir.
 Máteme infiel tu poder,
 Mas no acabe de morir.

Recitado
 Belisa, yo obstinado he de adorarte,
 Aunque te pierda mi infelice suerte,
 Pues por el interés de no perderte,
 No he de dejar el mérito de amarte.
 Pues si del destino la inflüencia
 Me diere por castigo el de la ausencia,
 Advierte que al aliento de un suspiro
 No hay segura distancia en el retiro.

Aria
 Viva alegre mi contento;
 Ame fiel mi corazón.
 Que el aliento
 Por tormento
 Tan violento
 No es bien,
 Deje la pasión.
 Viva alegre mi contento;
 Ame fiel mi corazón.

Fuga
 Aguas que corréis,
 Aves que voláis,
 Cielos que giráis,
 Auras que mecéis,
 Corred, volad,
 Girad, meced,
 Y el dulce tormento
 De amor explicad
 Al bello motivo
 De mi padecer.
