LETRA: William Blake
MÚSICA: Bosco
lyrics
Introduction*
Piping down the valleys wild,
Piping songs of pleasant glee,
On a cloud I saw a child,
And he laughing said to me.
<<Pipe a song about a Lamb!>>;
So I piped with merry chear.
<<Piper pipe that song again>>;
So I piped: he wept to hear.
<<Drop thy pipe, thy happy pipe;
Sing thy songs of happy chear>>;
So I sung the same again,
While he wept with joy to hear.
<<Piper, sit thee down and write
In a book that all may read.>>
So he vanishʼd from my sight,
And I pluckʼd a hollow reed,
And I made a rural pen,
And I stainʼd the water clear,
And I wrote my happy songs
Every child may joy to hear.
The shepherd*
How sweet is the Shepherdʼs sweet lot!,
From the morn to the evening he strays;
He shall follow his sheep all the day,
And his tongue shall be filled with praise.
For he hears the lambʼs innocent call,
And he hears the eweʼs tender reply;
He is watchful while they are in peace,
For they know when their Shepherd is nigh.
(*) Introduction y The Shepherd son dos poemas extraídos de Songs of Innocence and of Experience de William Blake (1789):
FLAUTISTA
Introducción
Tocando mi flauta por agrestes valles,
Tocando canciones de agradable júbilo,
Vi a un niño en una nube,
Que sonriendo me pedía:
<<¡Toca acerca de un Cordero!>>
Yo toqué con alegría.
<<Flautista, sopla otra vez esa canción…>>
Yo toqué: lloró al oirla.
<<Deja tu flauta, tu jovial flautín,
Canta tus felices cantos.>>
Otra vez canté lo mismo
Mientras él lloraba de alborozo.
<<Flautista, siéntate y escribe,
En un libro que pudieran leer todos.>>
Él se esfumó así ante mis ojos,
Yo tomé una caña hueca,
Hice una rústica pluma,
Y el agua clara teñí,
Felices cantos compuse
Que todos gocen oírlos.
El Pastor
¡Que dulce es la dulce suerte del pastor!
Que vaga, desde el alba hasta la noche;
Seguirá sus rebaños todo el día
Y poblará su lengua de alabanzas.
Pues escucha el llamado inocente del cordero
Y la tierna respuesta de la oveja;
Él los vigila, en paz los corderos van,
Cuando saben que cerca está el Pastor.
