Chosen for Diff
Contre mon gré, l'attrait de tes beaux yeux Dompte mon cœur, mais quand je te veux dire Quelle est ma mort, tu ne t'en fais que rire, Et de mon mal tu as le cœur joyeux. Puisqu'en t'aimant je ne puis avoir mieux, Souffre du moins que pour toi je soupire. Assez et trop ton bel œil me martyre Sans te moquer de mon mal soucieux.
