| Friend Bernard de Ventadorn how can you refrain from singing when thus you hear the nightingale rejoicing day and night Listen to the joy he manifests Every night he sings under the flowers he is wiser in the ways of love than you | F |
| Pierre I prefer sleep and rest to the nightingale's voice And you can speak this way to me for a long time before I relapse into folly God be praised I am free of the chains while you and the other lovers remain in folly | G |
| - | |
| Bernard it is difficult to be courtly and successful for him who does not persevere in love Neither can love cause us such sorrow that it is not worth more than any other good For if it hurts later it consoles It's hard to have a great boon without suffering but joy conquers tears | D |
| - | |
| Pierre if for two or three years the world were made as I would like the ladies I tell you the truth would no longer be pursued Instead they would undergo such extreme pain that they would do us the honor of bring suit rather than us to them | H |
| - | |
| Bernard it is not seeming for women to court it is rather the man who pursues and asks for mercy Madder than he who sows in the sand in my opinion is he who denigrates their virtue and such a man is badly educated | I |
| - | |
| Pierre my heart is very sad when I remember that false one who killed me I know not why unless it was because I loved her truly I have long been in quarantine and if I prolonged it I would find her worse still | J |
| - | |
| Bernard folly has gained you for you leave off love through which one gains worth and valor | B |
| - | |
| Pierre he who loves is mad for the traitresses among them have undone joy and worth and valor | B |
