Meendinho
Meendinho was a troubadour from the Iberian Peninsula during the medieval period, likely active in the 13th century. He is known for his contributions to the Galician-Portuguese lyric tradition, a significant body of poetry written in the Galician-Portuguese language, which was the vernacular of Galicia and Portugal during the High Middle Ages. His work typically falls within the genre of cantigas de amor or cantigas de amigo, exploring themes of courtly love, longing, and the relationship between the poet and the beloved, often from a feminine perspective in the case of cantigas de amigo. Meendinho's poetry is valued for its lyrical quality and its insight into the cultural and social milieu of the time.

Meendinho
Sedia-m'eu na ermida de San Simion
e cercaron-mi as ondas, que grandes son,
eu atendendo meu amigo.
Estando na ermida ant'o altar,
cercaron-mi as ondas grandes do mar,
eu atendendo meu amigo.
E cercaron-mi as ondas, que grandes son:
non hei i barqueiro, nen remador,
eu atendendo meu amigo.
E cercaron-mi as ondas do alto mar:
non hei i barqueiro, nen sei remar,
eu atendendo meu amigo.
Non hei i barqueiro, nen remador:
e morrerei fremosa no mar maior,
eu atendendo meu amigo.
Non hei i barqueiro, nen sei remar:
e morrerei eu fremosa no alto mar,
eu atendendo meu amigo.
