1- This new year's day

 

This New Year's Day I would like to lead the enjoyment,

Sing, dance and be in a joyful mood

To maintain the attractive custom

That all the lovers have to keep.

 

And sincerely I would like to amount to it

That I can find new friend

This New Year's Day I would like to lead the enjoyment,

Sing,dance and be in a joyful mood

 

To whom I could present

heart, body and possesion all together

Hey, gods of love be with me

So that the fate does not swamp me

 

This New Year's Day I would like to lead the enjoyment,

Sing, dance and be in a joyful mood

To maintain the attractive custom

That all the lovers have to keep.

 

2- Oppressive mourning

 

Oppressive mourning, excessive fury

Big despair full of violence

Unlimited slowness and swamped life

Full of tear, fear and agony.

Painful heart which lives darkly,

Tenebreux body on the point to leave

I have without stopping constantly,

And I cannot either be cured or die

 

3- Sad pleasure, painfull joy

instrumental

 

4 - If my face is pale

 

I

If I have the pale face

The cause is to love

It is the main clause

And it is so much bitter me

To love that in the sea

I would like to see myself

Now it is good to see

The Beautiful to whom I am

That I cannot have

No good to be without her

 

II

This heavy suitcase

Of mourning to be carried

This love is difficult

For me to carry

Because her good pleasure

Wants that we obey

That in her will

And because such

Her will is,

Without her I cannot

 

III

She is the most royal

That we can look,

Of her loyal love

I cannot beware

I am crazy to wait

Nor deserve

To receive love

Only from her, I believe

If I do not want to suffer,

Without her I cannot

 

5 -Farewell good wines

 

Farewell, this good wines of Lannoy

Farewell ladies, bourgeois farewell

Farewell the one that I love so much

Farewell any pleasant enjoyment

Farewell the companions of France

 

I go away while breaking walnuts

Because I do not find either beans or pea,

That if often I wished so much

Farewell, this good wines of Lannoy

Farewell ladies, bourgeois farewell

Farewell the one that I love so much

 

By me, you will be several time

Implored in wood

Where there is neither path nor way

And I would not know what I have to make

If I cannot shout aloud:

 

Farewell, this good wines of Lannoy

Farewell ladies, bourgeois farewell

Farewell the one that I love so much

Farewell any pleasant enjoyment

Farewell the companions of France

 

6 - Adieu m'amour, adieu ma joye

instrumental

 

7- Won't have I never better

 

I shall have ever better no than what I have

I am there where I was?

My love is all my pleasure.

You will never have knowledge

That I am completely to you and shall stay?

 

Do not put me any more the test

Because you know well in the truth

That I am extremely saddened

I shall have ever better no than what I have

I am there where I was?

My love is all my pleasure.

 

I surrender, and if I surrender

I shall not defend myself

Because you have too much power

And if you can take vengeance

But say to me what I can make

 

I shall have ever better no than what I have

I am there where I was?

My love is all my pleasure.

You will never have knowledge

That I am completely to you and shall stay?

 

8 - Girls of marriageableage

 

Girls of marriageable age

Get married never!

Because if there is jealousy

Never, either you or he

Will have enjoyment in the heart

And for this, think of it!

 

9- My heart sings joyously

instrumental

 

10- Farewell, my love and mistress

 

Farewell, my love and mistress

Farewell my sovereign desire?

Farewell the one that I want to serve

Farewell my comfort and enjoyment

 

I have a big desire to take a short road

So that I can return towards you

Farewell, my love and mistress

Farewell my sovereign desire?

 

Remember beautiful goddess

Of me who belong to you without failing

I have the will to return

By thinking of your beautiful youth

 

Farewell, my love and mistress

Farewell my sovereign desire?

Farewell the one that I want to serve

Farewell my comfort and enjoyment

 

 

 

 

 

11- Rightly I can complain and moan

 

RightlyI can indeed complain and moan

Which am exempt from jubilation and from enjoyment

I would not know where to have a single comfort

I don't know how to remain

 

Reason harms me and wants to abandon me

Hope misses me in any place whom I am

RightlyI can indeed complain and moan

Which am exempt from jubilation and from enjoyment

 

I do not know where to hold me, I am chased

By the fate which fights me so hardly

Enemies are the ones that I believed to be friends

And it is necessary to me to bear it and to suffer

 

RightlyI can indeed complain and moan

Which am exempt from jubilation and from enjoyment

I would not know where to have a single comfort

I don't know how to remain

 

12- O beautyfull Rosa

 

O beautiful Rosa, O my soft soul,

do not let me die with courtesy.

I was painfully bound to serve you well,

and to love you loyally

 

13- Beautyfull Virgin

 

Beautyfull Virgin, dressed in sun,

Crowned with stars, who pleased the sun so much that he hid its light in you,

Love urges me to speak about you,

But I can't begin without your help,

And without help from the one is hidden in you by love.

I call upon the one who always answer

To the one who calls her with faith.

Virgin, if ever the poverty extreme of the human condition youinciteto listen to my prayers,

Help me in my ware,

Even if I am only dust, and you the queen of the sky.
