Ie nose estre content de mon contentement,
Ne voulant desirer plus grande aise en ma vie.
De peur de perdre plus que ce dont jay envye,
Car qui demande trop pour plaisir a tourment.

(modernized)
Je n'ose être content de mon contentement,
Ne voulant désirer plus grande aise en ma vie.
De peur de perdre plus que ce dont j'ai envie,
Car qui demande trop pour plaisir a tourment.

English.png English translation


I hate to be secure in my content,
Unwilling to wish for greater ease in my life,
For fear of losing more than I covet;
For he who demands too much has pain instead of pleasure.

(trans. Timmi O'Danaos & Donna Ferrentes)
