De petit po, de niant volenté De moult assés doit penre, ce m'est vis, Chascuns amans de s'amie en bon gré.

Amours scet bien que je l'ay tant amé Et aim encor et ameray toudis Qu'on ne puet plus; mais mesdisans grevé M'ont envers li, qu'en li a tant d'avis, De bien, d'onneur, de savoir Que mon pouoir sceüst bien concevoir. Et nonpourquant, se s'amour pers einsi, Onques n'ama qui pour si po haÿ. Et s'aucuns ont vileinnement parlé A li de moy, je les met tous au pis Qu'onques vers li feïsse fausseté N'envers autrui, n'il ne doit leurs faus dis Tost croire ne li mouvoir, Eins doit avant la verité savoir. Et s'il les croit et me laist par tel si, Onques n'ama qui pour si po haÿ.
En Anglais: From little power, and weak will, One must take enough, it seems to me, Every lover should be content with his beloved. Alas! Grief-stricken, now I see that my beloved Does not want to have sufficiency Upon will, nor my little power Believe, instead, has abandoned me for this reason. No one ever loved for so little. Love knows well that I have loved it so much, And still love it and will love it always As much as one can; but those who speak ill of me Have turned it against me, for in it there is much Of goodness, honor, and knowledge, Which my power knew well how to conceive. And yet, if its love for me fades like this, No one ever loved for so little. And if some have spoken ill Of me to it, I hold them all in the worst light. I have never been disloyal to it or to others, And it should not quickly believe their false words, But should first know the truth. And if it believes them and leaves me as such, No one ever loved for so little.
Love this. Would love to hear you do "A Chantar" by Beatriz de Dia!
De petit po, de niant volenté
De moult assés doit penre, ce m'est vis,
Chascuns amans de s'amie en bon gré.
Lasse! dolente, or voy que mes amis
Ne vuet souffisance avoir
Seur volenté, ne mon petit pouoir
Croire ne puet, eins m'a pour ce guerpi.
Onques n'ama qui pour si po haÿ.
Amours scet bien que je l'ay tant amé
Et aim encor et ameray toudis
Qu'on ne puet plus; mais mesdisans grevé
M'ont envers li, qu'en li a tant d'avis,
De bien, d'onneur, de savoir
Que mon pouoir sceüst bien concevoir.
Et nonpourquant, se s'amour pers einsi,
Onques n'ama qui pour si po haÿ.
Et s'aucuns ont vileinnement parlé
A li de moy, je les met tous au pis
Qu'onques vers li feïsse fausseté
N'envers autrui, n'il ne doit leurs faus dis
Tost croire ne li mouvoir,
Eins doit avant la verité savoir.
Et s'il les croit et me laist par tel si,
Onques n'ama qui pour si po haÿ.
Excellent
En Anglais:
From little power, and weak will,
One must take enough, it seems to me,
Every lover should be content with his beloved. Alas!
Grief-stricken, now I see that my beloved
Does not want to have sufficiency
Upon will, nor my little power
Believe, instead, has abandoned me for this reason.
No one ever loved for so little.
Love knows well that I have loved it so much,
And still love it and will love it always
As much as one can; but those who speak ill of me
Have turned it against me, for in it there is much
Of goodness, honor, and knowledge,
Which my power knew well how to conceive.
And yet, if its love for me fades like this,
No one ever loved for so little.
And if some have spoken ill
Of me to it, I hold them all in the worst light.
I have never been disloyal to it or to others,
And it should not quickly believe their false words,
But should first know the truth.
And if it believes them and leaves me as such,
No one ever loved for so little.
