Available translation(s): ENG
Helas mon dueil, a ce cop sui je mort,
Puisque Refus l'esragié si me mort.
Certes, c'est fait de ma dolente vye;
Tout le monde ne me sauveroit mye,
Puisque m'amour en a esté d'acort.
Il ne fault ja que je voise a la mer
N'a saint Hubert pour moy faire garir;
La morsure me donne tant d'amer
Que de ce mal il me faulra morir.
[...]

Ah my grief, at this blow I am dead
Language: English  after the French (Français)
Ah my grief, at this blow I am dead
Since enraged Refusal so kills me.
Indeed the end is here for my sorrowful life
Nothing in the world could save me now,
Since my love has agreed with this fate.
I don't need to go to the sea
Or to St Hubert to get myself healed;
The wound gives me so much pain
That from this blow I must die.
[...]
Ah my grief, at this blow I am dead
Since enraged Refusal so kills me.
Indeed the end is here for my sorrowful life
Nothing in the world could save me now,
Since my love has agreed with this fate.
