Como puedo yo bivir by Anonymous — Lyrics
Como puedo yo vivir
si el remedio tras que ando
No tiene como ni quando.
El como no puedo auello
Quando no sa desperar.

About Como puedo yo bivir
This anonymous Spanish song, a secular villancico, is ideal for a small choir. The text expresses a lover's lament, questioning how life can continue when the object of their affection remains out of reach, with no clear path or time for resolution. The singer grapples with the unbearable nature of their longing, seeking solace that seems impossible to find. The simple SA voicing makes it accessible for choirs seeking engaging and emotionally resonant repertoire that explores themes of unrequited love and despair, set to a direct and affecting Spanish text.
