Je vous envoie un bouquet, que ma main Vient de trier de ces fleurs épanies, Qui ne les eut à ces vêpres cueillies, [Tombées]1 à terre elles fussent demain. Cela vous soit un exemple certain, Que vos beautés, bien qu'elles soient fleuries, En peu de temps, seront toutes flétries, Et, comme fleurs, périront tout soudain. Le temps s'en va, le temps s'en va ma Dame, Las ! le temps non, mais nous nous en allons, Et tôt serons étendus sous la lame, Et des amours, desquelles nous parlons Quand serons morts, n'en sera plus nouvelle : [Donc, aimez-moi]2, cependant qu'êtes belle.

我赠送给你一束我亲自 去挑选盛开的鲜花娇艳， 如果今晚不能按时采完， 明天就要零落凋谢作泥。 这给你做个明确的样子， 你的美貌如同此花一般， 不长时间就会全部凋残 就像花儿一样全部去死。 时间太快，夫人时间太快， 天！时间不在，而我们一起 不久一起在其刀下等待。 爱情，我们两个以前曾提 当我们死去，它就不会在长： 好，爱我吧，尽管你很漂亮。
