by Jean Froissart (c1337 - c1410)

Le corps s'en va, mais le cœur vous...
Language: French (Français) 
Le corps s'en va, mais le cœur vous demeure,
Très-chère dame, adieu jusqu'au retour,
Trop me sera lointaine ma demeure, 
Le corps s'en va, mais le cœur vous demeure,
Très-chère dame, adieu jusqu'au retour. 

Mais doux penser que j'aurai à toute heure,
Adoucira grant part de ma doulour.
Très-chère dame, adieu jusqu'au retour ;
Le corps s'en va, mais le cœur vous demeure.
