Прото, мета, квази
Ки-чен, с днем рождения!
I followed my Duke ere I was a lover,
To take from England fief and fee;
But now this game is the other way over -
But now England hath taken me!
I had my horse, my shield and banner,
And a boy's heart, so whole and free;
But now I sing in another manner -
But now the England hath taken me!
As for my Comrades in camp and highway,
That lift their eyebrows scornfully;
Tell them treir way is not my way -
Tell them England hath taken me!
Kings and Princes and Barons famed,
Knights and Captains in your degree;
Hear me a little before I am blamed -
Seeing England hath taken me!
Howso great man's strength be reckoned,
There are two things he cannot flee;
Love is the first, and the Death is the second -
And Love, in England, hath taken me!
