Now I have plumbed the depths of my darkest days: | Now I have plumbed the depths of my darkest days: | ||
My woes press upon me; | My woes press upon me; naught my suffering allays. | ||
Love alone is to blame | Love alone is to blame | ||
And threatens my poor wits to craze. | And threatens my poor wits to craze. | ||

French text
Or suis je bien au pire de mes malheureulx jours:
mon cas fort trop sempire et me vont a rebours.
Et tout cela me font amours
don jendure grief martire.
Sy nay de vous aultre secours,
force sera que me retire.
English translation
by Mick Swithinbank
Now I have plumbed the depths of my darkest days:
My woes press upon me; naught my suffering allays.
Love alone is to blame
And threatens my poor wits to craze.
Pray succour love's flame
Or see me go my ways.
