Our translations: ENG
[Ha, Bel-Acceuil]1, que ta douce parole Vint traîtrement ma jeunesse offenser, Quand au verger tu la menas danser Sur mes vingts ans l'amoureuse carolle! Amour adonc me mit à son école, Ayant pour maître un peu sage penser Qui sans raison me mena commencer Le chapelet d'une danse si folle Depuis cinq ans hôte de ce verger, Je vais ballant avecque Faux-Danger, Tenant la main d'une dame trop caute. Je ne suis seul par amour abusé; A ma jeunesse il faut donner la faute: En cheveux gris je serai plus rusé.
