My love, mon amour
My love for you is so high
That I am able really to die
If you ask me to stop my love
Now, immediately, my ladylove
Sachez madame que mon amour pour vous
Est complètement et terriblement fou
Et que si vous m'en priez, je mourrai
Maintenant, sur l'heure, ma bien aimée
What I must suffer for you
To get now a sure quiet love
Forever, my nice turtledove
Perhaps, becoming a statue
Que dois-je endurer encore pour vous
Afin d'obtenir enfin un amour paisible
Pour toujours, ma tourterelle inflexible
Peut-être, dois-je devenir une statue
That I am able really to die
If you ask me to stop my love
Now, immediately, my ladylove
Sachez madame que mon amour pour vous

What I must suffer for you
To get now a sure quiet love
Forever, my nice turtledove

Que dois-je endurer encore pour vous
Afin d'obtenir enfin un amour paisible
Pour toujours, ma tourterelle inflexible
Peut-être, dois-je devenir une statue

Love to see the original French interspersed with the English. You should do more of this...

oh god the language of love, i can inhale words like that without a clue of the meaning, but in this case, you have provided translation which makes it even more special.

it is not exactly a translation, in French, I used a language more precious, easy to do that for me...
