Original text and translations

French text Toutes les nuitz que sans vous je me couche, Pensant à vous ne fay que sommeiller, Et en revant jusques au resveiller Incessemment vous quiers parmi la couche, Et bien souvent au lieu de vostre bouche En soupirant je baise l'oreiller.

English translation Every night that I sleep without you, Thinking of you makes me want only to slumber, So as to dream of you until awakening Seeking you incessantly in the bed, And often in place of your mouth With a sigh I kiss the pillow.
