OLLANTA.
29

Auquimanta cahuac runan?

At having been created an Auqui?


Ollanta.

Maymantatac can yachanqui
Cay sonccoypi pacascayta?
Mamallanmi yachan chayta
Cunantac ccam huillahuanqui.

How knowest thou this
Which is hidden in my heart?
Her mother only knows it?
How is it that you now reveal it?


Uillac Umu.

Quillapin tucuy ymapas
Suyuscca quipu ñocapac
(Seqquesca quellca28)
Asuan pacascayqui caccpas
Sutillanmi can ñocapac.

All that has ever happened
Is present to me, as on a quipu,

Even what thou hast hidden most
To me is clear.


Ollanta.

Huatuscarccanmi sonccoypi
Ñocac miuy canayquita
Chaquisca upyanayquita
Huicchuhuacchu huc onccoypi!

My heart tells me
That I myself have produced
The poison which, thirsting, I drank.
Wilt thou abandon me in this evil case?


Uillac Umu.

May chica cutin upyanchis
Ccori querupi huañuyta
Yuyariey tucuy hamuita
Ricuy huallahuisan canchis.

How often do we drink
Death from a vase of gold.
Remember that all comes to us,
And we are rash.
