Fonte Frida - *Romance*

Fonte frida, fonte frida
Fonte frida y con amor,
do todas las avecicas
van tomar consolion,
sino es la tortolica,
que esta vida y con dolor.

Por ahi fuera a pasar
el traidor del ruisenor
las palabras que le dice
lienas son de traicio:

yo seria tu servidor.

Vete de ahi, enemigo,

malo, falso, enganador,
que ni poso en ramo verde
ni en ramo que tenga flor,
que si el agua hallo clara
turbia la bebiera yo;
que no quiero haber marido
porque higos ni hayo, no;
no quiero placer con ellos
ni menos consolacio.

Dejam triste, enemigo,
malo, falso, mal traidor,
que no quiero ser tu amigo
ni casar contig, no!

Is this spanish? Multi-ligual I see :) Would be great if you could post a translation for illiterates like us. :)

Ok what to say about this one? :-) This is a poem i learnt at school many years ago(wish i could remember it then, as well as i do now). Sure there is a translation, but i prefer it to be a private thought ('',)
