mediaeval baebes – e volentieri (undrentide) lyrics
lyrics (14th century italian)
translation
io mi son giovinetta e volentieri
i am a young maiden, and i willingly
m’allegro e canto en la stagion novella,
rejoice and sing in the new season,
merzè d’amore e de’dolci pensieri.
thanks to love and to my sweet thoughts.
io ve pe’verdi prati riguardando
i wander through green meadows gazing
i bianchi fiori e gialli e i vermigli,
at the white and yellow and vermilion flowers,
le rose in su le spine e i bianchi gigli,
at the roses above their th-rns and the white lilies,
e tutti quanti gli vo somiglando
and all of them i liken
al viso di colui che me, amando,
to the face of him who, loving me,
ha presa e terrà sempre, come quella
took me and forever will keep me as the one
ch’altro non ha in disio ch’e suoi piaceri.
who desires nothing but his pleasures.
