Me acerco y me retiro | B |
qui n sino yo hallar puedo | C |
a la ausencia en los ojos | D |
la presencia en lo lejos | D |
- | |
Del desprecio de Filis | D |
infelice me ausento | C |
Ay de aquel en quien es | D |
aun p rdida el desprecio | D |
- | |
Tan atento la adoro | B |
que en el mal que padezco | E |
no siento sus rigores | D |
tanto como el perderlos | D |
- | |
No pierdo al partir s lo | A |
los bienes que poseo | D |
si en Filis que no es m a | F |
pierdo lo que no pierdo | C |
- | |
Ay de quien un desd n | G |
lograba tan atento | C |
que por no ser dolor | B |
no se atrevi a ser premio | H |

Pues viendo en mi destino | G |
preciso mi destierro | B |
me desde aba m s | D |
porque perdiera menos | D |

Ay Qui n te ense o Filis | D |
tan primoroso medio | C |
vedar a los desdenes | D |
el traje del afecto | C |

A vivir ignorado | C |
de tus luces me ausento | C |
donde ni aun mi mal sirva | I |
a tu desd n de obsequio | E |

English | J |
I approach and I withdraw | B |
who but I could find | C |
absence in the eyes | D |
presence in what's far | B |
- | |
From the scorn of Phyllis | D |
now alas I must depart | C |
One is indeed unhappy | K |
who misses even scorn | G |
- | |
So caring is my love | I |
that my present distress | D |
minds hard heartedness less | D |
than the thought of its loss | D |
- | |
Leaving I lose more | B |
than what is merely mine | G |
in Phyllis never mine | G |
I lose what can't be lost | C |
- | |
Oh pity the poor person | G |
who aroused such kind disdain | G |
that to avoid giving pain | G |
it would grant no favor | B |
- | |
For seeing in my future | B |
obligatory exile | A |
she disdained me the more | B |
that the loss might be less | D |
- | |
Oh where did you discover | B |
so neat a tactic Phyllis | D |
denying to disdain | G |
the garb of affection | G |
- | |
To live unobserved | C |
by your eyes I now go | E |
where never pain of mine | G |
need flatter your disdain | G |
