Amour et Mars sont presque d'une sorte

Language: French (Français)

Our translations: CHI ENG

Amour et Mars sont presque d'une sorte : 
L'un en plein jour, l'autre combat de nuit ;
L'un aux rivaux, l'autre aux gendarmes nuit ; 
L'un rompt un huys, l'autre rompt une porte ;

L'un finement trompe une ville forte, 
L'autre coiment une maison seduit ; 
L'un le butin, l'autre le gain poursuit ; 
L'un deshonneur, l'autre dommage apporte ; 

L'un couche à terre, et l'autre gist souvent 
Devant un huys à la froideur du vent ; 
L'un boit mainte eau, l'autre boit mainte larme ; 

Mars va tout seul, les Amours vont tous seuls.
Qui voudra donc ne languir paresseux
Soit l'un ou l'autre, amoureux ou gendarme.

爱情&战争

Language: Chinese (中文) after the French (Français)

爱情战争几乎没有区分：
一个白天打另个晚上战；
一个对敌人另个防夜检，
一个破坏户另个破坏门。

一个精心设谋骗开强寨，
另个鬼鬼祟祟家中哄骗，
一个为赃物另个得连贯，
一个坏名声另个有伤害；

一个睡野地另个伏地面
在某门前风刀霜剑不管，
一个喝水多另个泪如泉，

战争不成双爱情单个见，
定要此人憔悴并且懒散，
你是当情郎还是去征战。
