by Garcilaso de la Vega (1503 - 1536)

Corrientes aguas, puras, cristalinas
Language: Spanish (Español) 
     Corrientes aguas puras, cristalinas,
árboles que os estáis mirando en ellas,
verde prado de fresca sombra lleno,
aves que aquí sembráis vuestras querellas,
hiedra que por los árboles caminas,
torciendo el paso por su verde seno:
     yo me vi tan ajeno
     del grave mal que siento
     que de puro contento
con vuestra soledad me recreaba,
donde con dulce sueño reposaba,
o con el pensamiento discurría
     por donde no hallaba
sino memorias llenas d'alegría.
