Lyrics: Clément Marot

J'aime le cœur de m'amie,
Sa bonté et sa douceur;
Je l'aime sans infamie
Et comme un frère la soeur.
Amitié démesurée
N'est jamais bien assurée,
Et met les cœurs en tourment.
Je veux aimer autrement.

I love my girlfriend's heart,
her goodness and her sweetness;
I love her without impropriety,
Like brother for sister.
Unbridled friendship
Is never well-judged,
And creates heart-ache.
I wish to love otherwise.
