Paroles et traduction Azam Ali - Lasse Pour Quoi

Lasse Pour Quoi

Lasse, por quoi refusai
Celui qui tant m'a amee?
Lonc tens a a muoi muse
Et n'i a merci trouvee
Lasse, si tres dur cuer ai!
Qu'en dirai
Forsenee
Fui, plus que desvee
Quant le refusai
G'en ferai
Droit a son plesir
S'il m'en daigne oïr

Certes, bien me doi clamer
Et lasse et maleree
Quant cil ou n'a puoint d'amer
Fors grant douçor et rosee
Tant doucement me pria
Et n'i a
Recouvree
Merci: forsenee
Fui quant ne l'amai
G'en ferai
Droit a son plesir
S'il m'en daigne oïr

Bien deüst avoir trouvé
Merci quant l'a demandée
Certes mal en ai ouvré
Quant je la li ai vëee
Mult m'a mis en grand esmai
G'en morrai
S'acordee
Sanz grant demorée
A lui ne serai
G'en ferai
Droit a son plesir
S'il m'en daigne oïr

Chançon va sanz delaier
A celui qui tant m'agree
Pour Dieu li pri et reqier
Veingne a moi sanz demoree
En sa merci me metrai
Tost avrai
Pes trouvée
Si il li agree
Car je trop mal trai
G'en ferai
Droit a son plesir
S'il m'en daigne oïr

Why Did You Refuse Me

Oh cruel, why did you refuse me,
The one who loved you so?
You have long mocked me,
And I have found no mercy
Oh cruel, my heart is so hard!
What shall I say?
I was crazy,
Out of my mind,
When I refused you.
I will do
Whatever pleases you,
If you will only listen to me.

Truly, I should call myself
Cruel and wicked,
For there is no lover like you,
Full of sweetness and grace.
You begged me so sweetly,
And I did not
Yield,
I was crazy:
I loved you not.
I will do
Whatever pleases you,
If you will only listen to me.

You should have found
Mercy when you asked for it.
Truly I did wrong
When I denied it to you.
You have driven me to despair.
I shall die
If we are not reconciled
Soon.
I will never be his
I will do
Whatever pleases you,
If you will only listen to me.

Song, go without delay
To the one who pleases me so.
I beg and implore him,
Come to me without delay.
I will put myself at his mercy.
Soon I shall find
Peace,
If it pleases him,
For I suffer too much.
I will do
Whatever pleases you,
If you will only listen to me.
