Entré je suis en grant pensée
Pour faire nouvelle amy
Dont je serray courrouchée
Et auray le cueur marry.

Je crois que n'est point par luy
Pour faire ma destinée
J'assayray aultre que luy

I have begun a great plan
Language: English  after the French (Français) 
I have begun a great plan
To make a new boyfriend
With whom I shall be wrathful
And keep his heart unhappy.

I believe it's not up to him at all
To shape my destiny.
I shall try another man, 
And I'll forget about him.
