Canzonetta Spagnuola
En medio a mis colores, ay,
Pintando estaba un día, ay,
Cuando la musa mía, ay,
Me vino a tormentar, ay.
Ay, con dolor pues dejo
Empresa tan feliz
Cual es de bellae nice
Las prendas celebrar, ay.
Quiso que yo pintase, ay,
Objeto sobrehumano, ay,
Pero lo quiso en vano, ay,
Lo tuvo que dejar, ay.
Ay, con dolor pues dejo
Empresa tan feliz
Cual es de bellae nice
Las prendas celebrar, ay.
Conoce la hermosura, ay,
Un corazón vagado, ay,
Mas su destin malvado, ay,
Ie impide de centar, ay.
Ay, con dolor pues dejo
Empresa tan feliz
Cual es de bellae nice
Las prendas celebrar, ay.
Spanish Serenade
In the midst of my colors, oh,
Painting one day, oh,
When my muse, oh,
Came to torment me, oh.
Oh, with pain I leave
Such a happy endeavor
Which is to celebrate
The charms of beauty, oh.
She wanted me to paint, oh,
A superhuman object, oh,
But she wanted it in vain, oh,
She had to leave it, oh.
Oh, with pain I leave
Such a happy endeavor
Which is to celebrate
The charms of beauty, oh.
She knows the beauty, oh,
A wandering heart, oh,
But her wicked fate, oh,
Prevents her from settling, oh.
Oh, with pain I leave
Such a happy endeavor
Which is to celebrate
The charms of beauty, oh.
