Original text and translations

French text

Old French
Amour me poingt et si ne me veult plaindre
ma peine double et sans espoir demeure
par quoi vault mieulx quen me taisant ie meure
doulc'est la mort qui peult doleur estaindre

Modern French
Amour me fait souffrir et si je ne veux me plaindre
ma peine double et demeure sans espoir,
par quoi il vaut mieux que je reste en me taisant.
Douce est la mort qui peut éteindre la douleur.
 

English translation

Love hurts, and yet if I should refrain from complaining,
my pain will double and remain without hope.
Let me therefore remain quiet,
sweet death will put and end to my suffering.
