[edit] Spanish

Como aquel que en soñar gusto recibe
Su gusto procediendo de locura
Así el imaginar con su figuravanamente su gozo en mí concibe

Otro bien en mí, triste, no se escribe
Si no es aquel que en mi pensar procura
De cuanto ha sido hecho en mi ventura
Lo sólo imaginado es lo que vive

Teme mi corazón de ir adelante
Viendo estar su dolor puesto en celada
Y así revuelve atrás en un instante

A contemplar su gloria ya pasada
¡Oh sombra! ¡Oh sombra! De remedio inconstante
Ser en mí lo mejor lo que no es nada
¡Oh sombra! ¡Oh sombra! De remedio inconstante
Ser en mí lo mejor lo que no es nada

[edit] English translation

Like one receiving pleasure from a dream
His pleasure thus proceeding from delusion
So does imagination with illusions conceive in vain its happiness in me.

No other good's inscribed on my sad heart
Except what in my thoughts I might procure
Of all the good I ever have endured
What lives is only the imagined part

My heart is frightened to proceed ahead
Seeing that its pain in ambush lies
And so after a moment it turns back

To contemplate those glories that have fled.
Oh, shadow of relief, that fickle flies,
To make what's best in me be what I lack!
Oh, shadow of relief, that fickle flies,
To make what's best in me be what I lack!
