Va rossignol
Language: French (Français) 
Va rossignol, amoureux messagier
Va faire ouyr a ma seule maistresse
Ton chant joyeulx pour elle soulager
Meslé d'amour et d'ung peu de tristesse.
Qu'est-ce Magdaleyne m'amye
Qu'est-ce que de tant aymer
Qu'en dictes vous Madgdaleyne jolye ?
Venez, venez vostre amy conforter
Accourez tost, plus ne fault séjourner,
Il vous attend, prenez vers luy l'adresse.
O grant beaulté de toutes le rnirouer
Gardez vous bien que par vous l'amour cesse.
