| | | | (Alguna Vez) By Cristóbal de Gastillejo |
|
| SOME day, some day, | |
| O troubled breast, | |
| Shalt thou find rest. | |
| If Love in thee | |
| To grief give birth, | 5 |
| Six feet of earth | |
| Can more than he; | |
| There calm and free | |
| And unoppressed | |
| Shalt thou find rest. | 10 |
| |
| The unattained | |
| In life at last, | |
| When life is passed, | |
| Shall all be gained; | |
| And no more pained, | 15 |
| No more distressed, | |
| Shalt thou find rest. | | | |
