Original text and translations
French text
Ta bonne grace et maintien gracieux
Et le regard de tes deux riants yeux
M’ont transporté le coeur de telle sorte,
Que contraint suis de crier à la porte
«Miséricorde au pauvre langoureux!»
English translation
Your good grace and gracious bearing
And the look of your two laughing eyes
Have invaded my heart so much,
That I am forced to shout at the door
“Have pity on the poor languishing one!”
