OLLANTA.
[Act I.

Hinantimpin huarma sipas
Anchatan rucupacunqui
Yma ppunchaucha yachancca
Ynca yuyaycusccayquita
Ccorochinccan umayquita
Ccantacc canqui aycha canca.

Are there not many other maidens
That you can love before you are old?
The day that a knowledge of your love
Shall come to the Ynca,
He will have your head cut off,
And your body roasted like meat.


Ollanta.

Ama runa, harccahuaichu!
Caipitacc sipirccoy quiman18
Ama rimapayahuaychu
Maquiyhuantaccttiqquiquiman.

Man! hold me not,
Or I will strangle thee!
Talk not too much before me,
Or with my hand I will tear thee to pieces.


Piqui Chaqui.

Puriy ari aysarccamuy
Allcco19 huarmuscca hinata;
Ychacca ama ñoccata
Puriy, Piqui, mascarccamuy
Nihuanquicha sapa huata
Sapa ppunchay, sapa tuta.

Away then! Let me be gone,
And not fall like a dog.
This shall not be for me.
Away Piqui! He will seek me,
He shall miss me each year,
Each day, each night.


Ollanta.

Ñan ñiquina, Piqui Chaqui,
Quiquin huañuy-ychunantin

Go then! Piqui Chaqui,
Lead forth the dances of straw.a
