Original text and translations

English.png English text 1. Now, O, now, I needs must part,

parting though I absent mourn.
Absence can no joy impart,
joy, once fled, cannot return.

Refrain: Sad despair doth drive me hence,

this despair unkindness sends.
If that parting be offence,
it is she which then offends!

2. While I live I needs must love,

Love live not when hope is gone:
Now, at last, despair doth prove,
Love divided loveth none.

3. Dear, when from thee I am gone,

Gone are all my joys at once.
I loved thee and thee alone,
in whose love I joyed once.

4. And, although your sight I leave,

slight wherein my joys do lie,
'Till that Death do sense bereave,
never shall affection die.

5. Dear, if I do not return,

Love and I shall die together.
For my absence never mourn,
whom you might have joined ever.

6. Part, we must, though now I die,

Die I do to part with you;
Him despair doth cause to lie,
who both loved and dieth true.
