Sin duda, un himno de la música gallega. El poema pertenece a Follas novas (1880), de Rosalía. El compositor Juan Montes Capón (Lugo 1840-1899) lo unió con un alalá recogido en A Cruz do Incio. Fue presentado por primera vez en el Gran Teatro de La Habana en 1892.
lyrics
Cando penso que te fuches,
negra sombra que me asombras,
ó pé dos meus cabezales
tornas facéndome mofa.
Cando maxino que es ida,
no mesmo sol te me amostras,
i eres a estrela que brila,
i eres o vento que zoa.
Si cantan, es ti que cantas,
si choran, es ti que choras,
i es o marmurio do río
i es a noite i es a aurora.
En todo estás e ti es todo,
pra min i en min mesma moras,
nin me deixarás ti nunca,
sombra que sempre me asombras.
