Jesós de mi goraçón by Gaspar Fernandes — Lyrics
About Jesós de mi goraçón
Gaspar Fernandes composed this sacred work for SSATB voices. The text is a devotional reflection, blending Nahuatl and Spanish. It addresses Jesus with tender endearments, asking why he weeps and urging him to cease his sorrow. The lyrics speak of the Nativity scene with the mule and the ox, calling Jesus 'my king' and 'my life'. It is a heartfelt plea, expressing deep personal devotion and concern for the divine child. The rich texture of SSATB would allow for a wonderfully expressive performance of this intimate text.
