possibly by
Thomas Wyatt, Sir (1503 - 1542)
All for Love of One
Language: English
Available translation(s): DUT
I must go walk the wood so wild
And wander here and there
In dread and deadly fear,
For where I trusted I am beguiled,
And all for love of one.
Thus am I banished from my bliss
By craft and false pretence,
Faultless, without offence,
As of return no certain is,
And all for love of one
The running streams shall be my drink,
Acorns shall be my food.
Nothing may do me good
But when of your beauty I do think,
And all for love of one.

Alles voor die ene liefde
Language: Dutch (Nederlands)  after the English
Ik moet gaan wandelen in het wilde woud
en hier en daar ronddwalen
in vrees en doodsangst
Want waar ik vertrouwde ben ik bedrogen
En alles voor die ene liefde
Zo ben ik mijn geluk verloren
door sluwheid en valse voorwendselen
volmaakt, zonder belediging,
zodat teruggaan zeker niet kan
En alles voor die ene liefde
De stromende beken zullen mij laven,
Eikels zullen mijn voedsel zijn.
Niets zal mij bevallen behalve
denken aan jouw schoonheid.
En alles voor die ene liefde.
