forget the translation send me some of the blood sausage(black pudding) pleaaase

morcilla means sausage? and what is a blood sausage?
black pudding? what is black pudding?

I think about this, see what I can come out with, is good training for me.
writting on demand

Morcilla is made with the guts of certain animals, filled with cooked and spiced blood and other stuff, like a sausage.

The life of a good writter :

Góngora obtained remunerative prebendaries and took minor orders toward the priesthood. Income now assured, he began to live a rather carefree life, to which an austere bishop soon put a stop. The bishop accused Góngora of unchurchly fondness for bullfighting, music, and theater, fined him 4 ducats, and forbade his further attendance at bullfights.

This site has the entire poem, but don't hit translate the page because the machiine translator really messes it up.

two notes over our portion:

1. Las mil preocupaciones (cuidados) del príncipe, no tendrán solución
   (como píldoras dorados) por comer con vajilla dorada.
2. quiero más: prefiero

Come on, Gus! Use common sense. He was charged 4 ducats, so it is obviously money. It is a gold coin used as currency in the past.

Why not? Machine translators are particularly good at translating ...

Let him eat from a golden platter, the prince
Tended to with great care like golden pills
For my poor table, I'd much prefer
A blood pudding which bursts on the grill,
And give the people cheer.

your translation is good. But lets do better. My problem is with pills. Did they had pills back in the 16 th century> Pills might mean something else - I am going to keep on traying.

I am impressed Steve, wow

Thanks, I'm with Gus though on the golden pill issue. If this great poetry by a great poet, I'm wondering if there might be another meaning for píldora dorada, Or does it just sound better in Spanish?

Here is the whole poem, and in this version, the word is cómo, giving us another option to consider.

Ándeme yo caliente
Y ríase la gente.
Traten otros del gobierno
Del mundo y sus monarquías,
Mientras gobiernan mis días
Mantequillas y pan tierno,
Y las mañanas de invierno
Naranjada y aguardiente,
Y ríase la gente.

Coma en dorada vajilla
El príncipe mil cuidados,
Cómo píldoras dorados;
Que yo en mi pobre mesilla
Quiero más una morcilla
Que en el asador reviente,
Y ríase la gente.

Cuando cubra las montañas
De blanca nieve el enero,
Tenga yo lleno el brasero
De bellotas y castañas,
Y quien las dulces patrañas
Del Rey que rabió me cuente,
Y ríase la gente.

Busque muy en hora buena
El mercader nuevos soles;
Yo conchas y caracoles
Entre la menuda arena,
Escuchando a Filomena
Sobre el chopo de la fuente,
Y ríase la gente.

Pase a media noche el mar,
Y arda en amorosa llama
Leandro por ver a su Dama;
Que yo más quiero pasar
Del golfo de mi lagar
La blanca o roja corriente,
Y ríase la gente.

Pues Amor es tan cruel,
Que de Píramo y su amada
Hace tálamo una espada,
Do se junten ella y él,
Sea mi Tisbe un pastel,
Y la espada sea mi diente,
Y ríase la gente

Coma en dorada vajilla
El príncipe mil cuidados,
Cómo píldoras dorados;
Que yo en mi pobre mesilla
Quiero más una morcilla
Que en el asador reviente,
Y ríase la gente.

Picking bits and pieces from all the contributors, how about this.

So the prince, with all his countless worries, for which there is no "golden pill" cure, eats from fancy tableware.
I prefer to have a simple meal on my humble table.
What do I care if people laugh at my way of thinking.

In essence
I prefer the simple life to one which not only brings great wealth but also great problems. And I don't care if people laugh at me.

Coma en dorada vajilla
El príncipe mil cuidados,
Cómo píldoras dorados;
because the food is served in golden plates,the food is thought of beign golden, not that it is actually golden. I am guessing.
