Original lyrics
Avre este abajour bijou, Avre la tu ventana, Por ver tu cara morena, al Dio dare mi alma. Por la tu puerta yo pasi Y la topi [encontri] cerrada. La lavedura yo bezi, Como bezar tu cara. No quiero mas que me hables ni por mi puerta passes; mas antes me querias bien angora te yelates Si tu de mi t'olvidaras, Tu hermozura piedraras! Ningun niqo t'endeqara[s] En los mis brasos mueras.
Translated lyrics
Open your closed door open your closed door open your window to see your brown face I will give my soul to God I passed by your door I found it was closed the keyhole I kissed as though to kiss your face Don't speak to me anymore Or pass by my door you loved me much before now you turned cold if you will forget about me you will lose all your beauty you will have no children for in my arms you will die
Notes
This cantiga belongs to the popular love songs in which the door, the window, or the balcony is a symbol. There is an overlap with "Por la puerta yo pasi"
