Baltasar del Alcázar


Baltasar del Alcázar (1530 in Seville, Spain–16 February 1606 in Ronda) was a Spanish poet. He was the sixth child of Luis del Alcázar. His poetry was about life and love, most of it spiced with a keen sense of humor.

A short example of his poetry is Tres Cosas (Three Things):

Tres cosas me tienen preso
de amores el corazón.
La bella Inés, el jamón
y berenjenas con queso.

Three things have caught my heart:

The pretty Inés, cured ham
and aubergines with cheese.
