Je donne [a tous les amoureux
Pur estrines unne soussye
Qui cest an aiment sans partie,
A garir leur cuers dolereux.]

I give to all lovers
Language: English after the French (Français)
I give to all lovers
As New Year's gift a marigold,
Which they can love without taking sides,
And cure their sad hearts.
Their case is worse than the hard-working ploughman
Or carter who loses his way
I give to all lovers
As New Year's gift a marigold.
From the bonds of Love's fertile Pain,
From sadness and from jealousy
They will be cured, I do not doubt;
That's the truth, so help me God.
I give to all lovers
As New Year's gift a marigold,
Which they can love without taking sides,
And cure their sad hearts.
