Lyrics: Anon

Il ne se trouve en amitié
Rien plus contraire et ennemi
Que vouloir partir par moitié
Le bien et le mal de l'ami
Car il ne faut point de demi
Ce qui est à moi n'est pas mien
J'estime à moi ce qui est sien.
De son mal toujours je me deulx
Elle s'éjouit de mon bien.
Ainsi ce n'est qu'un de nous deux.

There is nothing to be found in friendship
More contrary and hostile
Than to want to divide
The good and bad of the friend equally.
You don't need a half.
What is mine isn't mine:
What I consider mine is hers.
I always regret her misdeeds;
She benefits from my good deeds.
So we two are but one.
