et tant m’est amer
amer qu’en la mer

cest amour est male
pour moy de porter

fors qu'a son vouloir
obeisse et puis
q'elle a tel pooir

fol sui de agarder

If my face is pale,
the cause is loving.
That is the principal one,
And for me so bitter is
loving that into the sea
I want to send myself.
Now she can well see,
the lovely one I belong to,
that to have any well-being,
without her I cannot.

If I have a heavy load
of sorrow to carry,
it's that this love is painful
for me to bear.
For to please oneself
she will not consent;
only her wishes
may one obey. And since
she has such power,
without her I cannot.

She is the most regal woman
that one could look upon.
From loyal love for her
I cannot keep myself.
Foolish I am in resolving
to make it my duty
to receive love
only from her. I sought
to be unwilling to suffer;
without her I cannot.
