Lo Testament [English translation]

The queen was ill

the daughter of a French king.

She was visited by

counts, dukes and knights.

Her grandmother came in,

acting very innocently:

- "Daughter of my daughter,

what ails you so?" -

-"Mother of my mother,

you know well what ails me,

you've given me medicine

that God will not forgive you for"-

-"Daughter of my daughter,

what will you leave me with?"-

-"Mother of my mother,

nothing in this palace belongs to me"-

-"I have nine castles in France,

those nine are my own

Two I'll leave to the poor,

to the poor, for my love of God;

and I'll leave three to Carles,

Carles, my brother.

and three I'll leave at the altar

to enlighten God"-

-"Daughter of my daughter,

what will you leave me with?"-

-"Mother of my mother,

you know well what ails me,

-"Daughter of my daughter,

what will you leave me with?"-

-"Mother of my mother,

a rope for you to hang on."-
