English text
Though my carriage be but careless,
though my looks be of the sternest,
yet my passions be compareless,
when I love, I love in earnest.
No, my wits are not so wild
but a gentle soul may yoke me,
nor my heart so hard compiled
but it melts, if love provoke me.
Dutch translation
Al is mijn vege lijf versleten,
en zijn mijn trekken wat verbeten,
toch is mijn hartstocht onbegrensd,
wanneer ik liefheb in alle ernst.
Ach nee, mijn grapjes zijn niet erg gevat
toch brengt een zachte ziel mij in vervoering,
noch is mijn inborst zo gehard
dat 'k niet ontdooi van liefde en ontroering.
