Original text and translations

French text Amour amour tu es par trop cruelle Quant tes amants il ne pensent qu'a bien Tu ne sais rien mais mon coeur le sait bien Amour me prend c'est chose naturelle

English translation O Love, o love, you are by far too cruel For when your lovers think in love to dwell You help them not, but my poor heart knows well To fall in love is not to be a fool. Translation by Thomas Daughton
