English Lute Songs

Robin Blaze, countertenor
Elizabeth Kenny, lute


Where the bee sucks, there suck I;
In a cowslip’s bell I lie;
There I couch when owls do cry.
On the bat’s back I do fly
After summer merrily.
Merrily, merrily shall I live now
Under the blossom that hangs on the bough.


W. Shakespeare: The Tempest, Act V Scene 1


Libo donde la abeja liba;
reposo en la campanilla de una prímula;
allí me acuesto cuando gritan las lechuzas.
Vuelo a lomos de un murciélago,
persiguiendo alegremente el verano.
Alegremente viviré ahora
bajo la flor que de la rama pende.
