OLLANTA.
[Act I.

Ninapi canaspa llipi
Rupachincca mana accospa.

For thee are they destroyed in the fire,
And shall burn, after the fast is over.


Ollanta.

Piqui Chaqui, caycca hamuscan
Chay Amauta, Uillac Umu!
Yma qquenchas manu ccumu
Payhuan cusca purimuscan
Checcnicunin cay layccata
Ancha llaquita huatuccnin
Tucuy phutita huatucctin.

See who comes, Piqui Chaqui!
It is the wise Uillac Umu.
Behold this lion is coming
Accompanied by evil omens:
I hate this soothsayer
Who, ever when he speaks,
Announces black auguries.


Piqui Chaqui.

Upallay ama rimaychu
Payni huc rimasccayquita
Nan yachaña yscay mitta
Nan huatuna chaychu caychu.

Hush. Speak not!
Even now that sorcerer
Knows twice as much as you
Concerning what you said.


Ollanta.

Ricuanman rimaycusacc
Ccapac Auqui, Uillac Umu
Yupaychayquin pachaccuti
Cccapac cachun tucuy sutti
Hinatintacc Ccapac ccumu.

I will speak; now that he has seen me.
O powerful and noble Uillac Umu,
I adore thee with profound veneration.
From thee nothing is hidden
We see that all must be known to thee.
