Our translations: ENG

Cueur langoreulx qui ne fais que penser,
Plaindre, gémir, plourer et souspirer,
Resjouys toy, car ta belle maistresse
Par sa pitié te veult donner liesse,
Joye et plaisir pour te reconforter.

O, pining heart

Language: English after the French (Français)

O, pining heart which does nothing but think,
Lament, groan, weep and sigh,
Rejoice!  For your lovely mistress
In her mercy wishes to give you happiness,
Joy and pleasure to comfort you.
