about

Madrigal by Claudin de Sermisy

lyrics

Au joly boys, en l'ombre d'ung soucy,
M'y fault aller pour passer ma tristesse,

I must go to the pretty wood
and spend my grief in the shadow of worry

Remply de dueil d'ung souvenir transy,
Menger m'y fault maintes poires d'angoisse,

Filled with mourning for a memory that transfixes me
I must eat so many bitter fruits

En ung jardin remply de noires flours
De mes deux yeulx feray larmes et plours.

In a garden filled with black flowers
I shall cry and weep from both my eyes


Fy de lyesse et hardiesse! Regret m'oppresse,
Puis que j'ay perdu mes amours.


So much for jollity and bold adventures, I am oppressed with regret
Because I have lost my love


Las! trop j'endure, Le temps m'y dure, Je vous asseure:
Soulas, vous n'avez plus de cours!


Alas I endure too much, time hangs heavy on me, I tell you for sure:
Joy and solace are no more.
