French text
Choir:
- Cueurs desolez par toute nation.
- Assemblez duiel et lamentation.
- Ne cherchez plus l’armoniance,
- Lyre d’Orpheus pour voz resiouysance.
- Mais plongez vous en desolation.
Tenor line from Lamentations of Jeremiah:
- Plorans ploravit in nocte,
- et lacrymae eius maxillis eius,
- non est qui consoletur eam
- ex omnibus caris eius.
English translation
- Hearts, grieve for all the nation
- assemble sorrow and lamentation.
- Do not search for harmony anymore,
- for Orpheus’ lyre to rejoyce,
- but plunge yourselves into desolation
- She weepeth sore in the night,
- and her tears are on her cheeks;
- she hath none to comfort her
- among all her lovers.
