cantiga de amigo

o dearest one please walk today with me
down to the beach beside the risen sea
to sit a while and watch the surging waves

o dearest one do not deny me this
by the seashore a single long-sought kiss
as we sit here watching the surging waves

o dearest one let us go at once this day
down to the shore to watch the ocean play
and sit a while and watch the surging waves

o dearest one i bid you come with me this night
down to the shore in the bright moonlight
to sit a while and watch the surging waves
