about

Madrigal by Claudin de Sermisy

lyrics

J'attends secours de ma seule pensée :
J'attends le jour, que l'on m'éconduira,

I wait for help from my thoughts alone
I wait for the day when I will be rejected


Ou que du tout la belle me dira :
"Ami, t'amour sera récompensée."

Or else that the fair lady will tell me
"Your love will be rewarded."


Mon alliance est fort bien commencée,
Mais je ne sais comment il en ira :

My bond of love has begun so well
But I cannot tell how it will fare



Car, s'elle veut, ma vie périra,
Quoiqu'en amour s'attend d'être avancé.

Because if she wishes I shall lose my life
Despite my hope to progress in love.


Si j'ai refus, vienne Mort insensée:
A son plaisir de mon coeur jouira.

If I am rejected, may senseless death overpower me
and do its will with my heart



Si j'ai merci, adonc s'éjouira
Celui qui point n'a sa Dame offensée.

If I am shown grace, then he,
who has never offended his lady, will rejoice.
