Amour de moy tant bien servy,
Au lieu de deve joissance,
Que par devoyr ay desservy,
S’au labeur on doit recompence;
Sans de mieux avoir esperance,
Pour guerdon me rend malheureux:
O que celuy la est heureux,
Qui aymant bien est bien aymay,
Que je fuce moyns amoureux,
Ou plus mon service estimay.

English.png English translation

My love has served me well,
Instead of giving [me] pleasure
That by seeing her [being] mistreated
We must make efforts to compensate [her]
There is nothing better than having hope,
for rendering me unhappy
Oo that he might be happy
He who loves is well loved,
that I might be less loving,
or my service more valued.
