Villancico in Castilian. The rubric indicates ”The villancico that follows in the manner that here is sounding: the singer has to sing unadorned and the vihuela should go quite fast”.

Song Text

Agora viniesse un viento
Que me echasse acullá dentro

Agora viniesse un viento’
tan bueno como querria
que me echasse acullá dentro
en faldas de mi amiga

Y me hichiesse tan contento
Que me echasse acullá dentro

Now there came a wind
That threw me down there.

Now there came a wind
As good as I could have wanted.
That threw me down there
Inside my girl’s skirt.

And it made me happy
Getting thrown down there.
