Description: This is a chanson réponse to Josquin's Mille regretz. The text plays ironically with the closing line of the Josquin chanson ("my days will soon end") by starting "mine will end as fast" -- referring not to the narrator's days, but to her sorrow at the departure of her lover. }}

Original text and translations

French text Les miens aussi brief verras decliner voiant au vray que fortune envieuse de nostre amour veult estre curieuse pas ung deppart le faire decliner.

English translation Mine you are going to see as quickly wane Now that I know clearly that jealous fate, Eager to meddle in our love’s estate, Seeks through one’s departure to make it wane. Translation by Thomas Daughton
