Paycha canccan, ycha pichu Ccayna ppuncha ranqui ranqui Pununtas qquecuna uccupi Lloccsimuriccan chay Surupi Ynti manri ricchacunccan Quillamantacc tucupunccan20

Who, with other spotless ones, Came forth but yesterday? Perchance it was she! Beautiful as the morning, Brilliant as the Sun in his course, Bright as the moon.

Ollanta.
Paypunin chaycca riccsinqui Yma sumac, yma cusi Cunallanmi purininqui Cunaiñiyhuan cusi cusi.	No doubt it was she, How lovely! how joyful! But now you must have walked by her! How bright and joyful is she!

Piqui Chaqui.
Mana ñoccacca riymachu Ppunchaycca hatun huasita Chaypiñatacc ccepintinta21 Mana pita reccsiymanchu.	Indeed I cannot speak of her. I cannot go this day to her house, They would not let a porter in, And I know her not by sight.

Ollanta.
Reccsimiñan ñinquitaccmi?	Did you not say that you knew her?

Piqui Chaqui.
Chaytacca ñiyllama ñimi Tutallan ccoyllurcca ccanchan, Tutallatacc mi reccsini.	I said that, meaning That as the stars shine at night in their places, So I only know her at night.
