Original text and translations

English.png English text

Like as the doleful dove delights alone to be,
and doth refuse the bloomed branch, choosing the leafless tree,
where on wailing his chance, his bitter tears besprent,
doth with his bill his tender breast oft pierce and all to rent;
whose grievous groanings though, whose grips of pining pain,
whose ghastly looks, whose bloody streams outflowing from each vein,
whose falling from the tree, whose panting on the ground,
examples be of mine estate, though there appear no wound.

French.png French translation

Tout comme la triste tourterelle trouve plaisir en la solitude,
et refuse la branche fleurie, préférant l’arbre dénudé,
où gémissant sur son sort, ses larmes amères s’éparpillant,
de son bec perce souvent sa tendre gorge en lambeaux ;
de qui les affreuses lamentations, de qui l’emprise d’une douleur lancinante,
de qui les horribles regards, de qui des filets ensanglantés coulant de chaque veine
de qui la chute de l’arbre, de qui les halètements sur le sol,
sont des exemples de mon état, même si aucune plaie ne se peut voir.
