Le Testament: Ballade: 'Item: Donne A Ma Povre Mere'
Item
This I give to my poor mother
As a prayer now, to our Mistress
- She who bore bitter pain for me,
God knows, and also much sadness -
I've no other castle or fortress,
That my body and soul can summon,
When I'm faced with life's distress,
Nor has my mother, poor woman:
Ballade
'Lady of Heaven, earthly queen,
Empress of the
infernal
regions,
Receive me, a humble Christian,
To live among the chosen ones,
Though I'm worth less than anyone.
