Chascung soit adverty de faire comme moy

Modern French
Amour au coeur me pique quand bien aimé je suis,
mais aimer ne puis quand on ne m'aime point.
Chaqu'un soit averti de faire comme moi,
car aimer sans parti (= partenaire) c'est un trop grand émoi.
English translation
by Mick Swithinbank
Love blossoms in my heart
only if returned,
but I'd rather not love at all
than to see it spurned.
Quench the flame
before it is ignited!
Better so to do
than to suffer unrequited.
