Contre Le Tens/Toda Cousa Lyrics
Contre le tens qui devise<br />
Yver et pluie d'este<br />
Et la mauvais se debrise<br />
Qui de lonc tens n'a chante<br />
Ferai chancon car a gre<br />
Me vient que j'ai en pense<br />
Amores qui en moi s'est mise<br />
Bien m'a droit son dart gete<br />
(During that time between winter and the rains of summer<br />
when the blackbird sings who hasn't sung for such a long time,<br />
I will make a song, because the desire comes to me,<br />
and I have been thinking about it. Love, who has lodged in me,<br />
has indeed struck me straight in the heart with his arrow.)<br />
<br />
Toda cousa que a Virgen seja prometuda,<br />
Dereit'e: et gran razon que lle seja teuda.<br />
D'est'un fremoso miragre fez Santa Maria<br />

En Chartres por hua moller que jurad'avia<br />
Que non fezesse no sabado obra sabuda<br />
Per que a Santa Maria ouvesse sannuda.<br />
(All those who ever promise something to the virgin, <br />
it is just and there is great reason that they keep that. <br />
It is of a wonderful miracle done by Holy Mary in Chartres <br />
for a woman who swore an oath that she would never work on Saturday...)
