The most concise compilation is in _Nezahualcoyotl, Vida y Obra_ by Jose
Luis Martinez (Mexico: Fondo de Cultura Economica, 1972) which contains
most of the poems of N.

Other sources of the Poetry attributed to Nezahualcoyotl can be found in
the _Poesia Nahuatl_ 3 vols. edited and translated into Spanish by Angel
Maria Garibay.  There are selections from those volumes in Brigita
Leander's _Flor y Canto, also in Spanish.  A translation into English which
has caused much controversy is John Bierhorst's _Cantares Mexicanos_ which
also contains some poems attributed to Nezahualcoyotl.
