Song of a Girl Who Sought Love
- Mother, it was here that I met a young lord
- who left me with love and a martyr's torment.
- Ah, mother, how I'm in love!
- If I'm in love it's
- because I sought it,
- but he also caught it.
- Ah, mother, how I'm in love!
- Mother, it was here I met a young noble,
- who left me in this state, all troubled.
- Ah, mother, how I'm in love!
- If I'm in love it's
- because I sought it,
- but he also caught it.
- Ah, mother, how I'm in love!
- Mother, it was here, on a day I deplore,
- that he left me troubled – I wish he'd left more!
- Ah, mother, how I'm in love!
- If I'm in love it's
- because I sought it,
- but he also caught it.
- Ah, mother, how I'm in love!
[English version by Richard Zenith]
