by Charles, Duc d'Orléans (1394 - 1465)

En regardant ces belles fleurs
Language: French (Français) 
Our translations:  ENG
En regardant ces belles fleurs
Que le temps nouveau d'amours prie,
Chascune d'elle s'ajolie,
Et farde de plaisans couleurs;
Tant embasmées sont de odeurs
Qu'il n'est cueur qui ne rajeunie.
En regardant ces belles fleurs
Que le temps nouveau d'amours prie.

Les oyseaulx deviennent danseurs
Dessus mainte branche fleurie,
Et font joyeuse chanterie,
De contres, des chans et teneurs.
En regardant ces belles fleurs
Que le temps nouveau d'amours prie.
