Ma belle si ton ame
Se sent or allumer
De cette douce flame
Qui nous force d'aymer,
Allons contans,
Allons sur la verdure,
Allons tandis que dure
Nostre jeune printemps.

Avant que la journee
De nostre age qui fuit
Se sent environee
Des ombres de la nuit,
Prenons loysir
De vivre nostre vie
Et sans craindre l'envie
Baisons nous a plaisir.

Du soleil la lumiere
Sur le soir se desteint,
Puis a l'aube premiere
Elle reprend son teint.
Mais nostre jour,
Quant une foys il tombe,
Demeure sous la tombe,
Y faisant long sejour.

Ca, finette affinee
Ca, rompons le destin,
Qui clot nostre journee
Souvent des le matin.


English translation:

My beautiful one, if your soul
now feels itself glowing
with this sweet flame
which compels us to love,
let us go happily,
let us go upon the greenery,
let us go while
our young springtime lasts.

Before the day
of our time passes,
feeling itself wrapped
in the shadows of night,
let us take leisure
in living our lives
and, without fear of rivalry,
let us kiss at our pleasure.

The sun's light
fades at eventide;
then, at daybreak,
its color is revived.
but our day,
when once it falls,
remains in the grave,
there to dwell for a long time.

Here then, my precious one,
here then, let us break from such a fate,
which would end our day
even before morning has passed.
