Spanish dance song from beginning of the 17th century, from the Cartoon Opera 'Escarramán'

lyrics

Yo vi una mozuela
De buen parecer,
Liberal de manos
Y corta de pies:

Preguntóme un día
Porque la miré,
¿Qué es su pensamiento
De vuestra merced?

Dígela, mi alma,
Yo la quiero bien:
Respondióme luego,
Yo á él también:

¡Fuego de Dios,
fuego de Dios
en el bien querer!
¡Fuego de Dios,
fuego de Dios
en el querer bien!
¡Amen!

Yo que soy mas tierno
Que hecho de alcacer
Di luego en amalla
A lo portugúes

Sustentaba el alma
En amor fiel,
Pobre de dinero
Y rico de fé;

No nos concertamos
En todo aquel mes,
Que un amante pobre
Camina sin pies.

Díjome un testigo
De mi padecer;
Perdereis el seso,
Amante novel:

Conquistais empresa
De una hermosa muger
A puro suspiros,
Moneda sin ley,

Sin ver que por ellos
No habrá merdader
Que un palmo fiado
De cintas os dé.

Sin ver que por ellos
No habrá merdader
Que un palmo fiado
De cintas os dé.

Por buenos doblones,
Si queremos bien,
Las señoras damas
Nos harán merced:

¡Fuego de Dios,
fuego de Dios
en el bien querer!
¡Fuego de Dios,
fuego de Dios
en el querer bien!
¡Amen!

¿Para qué escuchaste
palabras de amor,
si agora me tratas
con tanto rigor?

Si habebis pecunias (si quieres dinero)
dormirás mecum, (dormirás conmigo)
et si Mis non habes,
nil nil est neutrum.

¡Fuego de Dios,
fuego de Dios
en el bien querer!
¡Fuego de Dios,
fuego de Dios
en el querer bien!
¡Amen!
