OLLANTA.
55

Qqueque maquinri llullu caymanpi
Cullarimpunin
Rucanancuna ttacca cuyñinpi
Rucanancuna (pascacuiñinpi)
Chulluncuy cutin.

Her fingers are like icicles:
As I gazed,
And as she moved them

They gave me joy.


Ollanta.

Ay Cusi Coyllur!
Ricsirccanchus cay taquicca
Sumayñiquita!
Ripullachun cay llaquicca
Maytapas quita[1]
Ñocan ccanta chincachiqui
Muspallasacña
Ñocan ccanta sipichiqui
Huañullasacña.

Ah, Cusi Coyllur!
I recognize that music,
For it describes her beauty;
The sorrow it brings back
Remains with me.
If I should lose thee,
I shall go mad;
If I should be deprived of thee,
I shall die.


Piqui Chaqui.

Sipin punicha Ccoyllurta
Manan tutapas canchanchu.

Perhaps they have killed Coyllur,
Now the night is dark.


Ollanta.

Ychacca ricsinccan Ynca
Ollantaypa chusasccanta
Tucuytan tarincca aucanta
Tucuytacmi saquerencca.

Perhaps the Ynca knows
That Ollanta is absent,
That all are his enemies,
And have abandoned him.
