OLLANTA.
[Act II.

Piqui Chaqui.

Tapuhuaycca ccoycunaspa
(Ymatapas cunan ccohuai)
Chay pachacca huillascayqui.

Dost thou ask me? Give me

Those clothes, and I will tell.


Rumi-Ñahui.

Huc allin caspita huatanaypacc
Quimsatatacc huarcunaypacc.

I will give you a good stick,
And to hang you—three.


Piqui Chaqui.

Ama manchachicu huaychu.

Oh, do not frighten me.


Rumi-Ñahui.

Utccayta rimariy ari.

Then speak quickly.


Piqui Chaqui.

[Ccanpas uyarihuay ari
Ñoccacca ñausay apuniu
Rimriypas upayapunmi
Machulaycca huañupumi
Mamaytacca cconccapunmi.

But you will not listen.
I am turning blind,
My ears are getting deaf;
My grandmother is dead,
And my mother is alone.


Rumi-Ñahui.

[Maipin ñinay Ollantaycca?

Where is Ollanta? Tell me!


Piqui Chaqui.

[Chusapunaccanmi tataycca
Manan pocconchu paccayca
Pocchupurccanmi callpayca
Sasan chay cuncu llantaycca
Ynca uccupin Mancanaycca
Ancha carus sallccantaycca].

My father is from home,
And the paccays are not ripe.
I have a long walk to-day,
It is difficult to carry me.
The Ynca would cut up his body.
The desert is very far off.
