INCA - YOU WILL SING WITH THE VOICE OF THE LARK

.

.
The music below is from a great album
of traditional music from the Andes that
came out in '95 on the Legacy International label.
The song is titled "Perdonaguangoi."

With rejoicing mouth, with rejoicing tongue,

by day and tonight you will call.

Fasting, you will sing

with the voice of the lark

and perhaps in our happiness,

in our delight, from some place in the world,

the creator of man

the Lord All-powerful,

will hear you.

"Ay!" he will say to you,

and you

wherever you are and thus forever

with no other lord but him

will live, will be.

Below is a short (:48) example of the

song of a lark - in this case a 
wood lark from France.
