Manfred is a dramatic poem written in 1816–1817 by Lord Byron. It contains supernatural elements, in keeping with the popularity of the ghost story in England at the time. It is a typical example of a Romantic closet drama. Manfred was adapted musically by Robert Schumann in 1852, in a composition entitled Manfred: Dramatic Poem with music in Three Parts, and later by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky in his Manfred Symphony. Friedrich Nietzsche was impressed by the poem's depiction of a super-human being, and wrote some music for it.
Byron wrote this "metaphysical drama", as he called it, after his marriage failed in scandal amidst charges of sexual improprieties and an incestuous affair between Byron and his half-sister, Augusta Leigh. Attacked by the press and ostracized by London society, Byron fled England for Switzerland in 1816 and never returned.
Because Manfred was written immediately after this and because Manfred regards a main character tortured by his own sense of guilt for an unmentionable offense, some critics consider Manfred to be autobiographical, or even confessional. The unnamed but forbidden nature of Manfred's relationship to Astarte is believed to represent Byron's relationship with his half-sister Augusta.

Genres: Comedy,Manfreddi tenía un hijo
retardado mental.
Era viudo y mantenía
a su suegra y su mamá:
Y cuando llegaba la hora de almorzar
salía de trabajar
cuando se encontaba meta cocinar
las viejas solían gritar:
'Danos de comer'
Ay, ay ,ay, ay.
'Que ya son la una'
Ay, ay ,ay, ay.
'Venime a cambiar'
Ay, ay ,ay, ay.
'Que ya me hice encima'
Ay, ay ,ay, ay.
Manfreddi vivía ahorrando
para poder vivir.
Se pudo comprar la casa
un mes antes de morir.
Cuando agonizaba en el hospital
el cura le vino a rezar
y por los pasillos bailan enfermeras
al ritmo del sermón final.
Ten piedad señor
Ay, ay ,ay, ay.
De este pobre idiota
Ay, ay ,ay, ay
Derrama tu amor
Ay, ay ,ay, ay
Sobre este tarado
Ay, ay ,ay, ay
El dios de los infelices
no lo dejó entrar
pues ya tenía albergado
a más de medio Uruguay.
Y después de un largo y duro deambular
al infierno fue a parar,
luego de una espera frente al gran portal,
abrieron y pudo pasar.
Apenas entró
Ay, ay ,ay, ay.
Ya se lo clavaron.
Ay, ay ,ay, ay.
Pero le gustó.
Ay, ay ,ay, ay.
Así que lo echaron.
Ay, ay ,ay, ay.
