about

This canso was composed in 1213 and dedicated to Pere II of Aragon. The razo (introductory speech) to this song tells of the excommunication of the Count of Tolosa and the subsequent loss of his lands. Within the constraints of courtliness, Raimon de Miraval expresses his hope that on the one hand, the world of chivalry be returned to its former state, and on the other that he can continue to enjoy the courtly love of Leonor, the wife of the Count. In bucolic surroundings Raimon de Miraval sings of his love for this royal , paying homage to her beauty and virtues.

lyrics

Bel m’es qu’ieu chant e coindei
Pus l’aura es dus’e.l temps gai,
E per vergiers e per plai
Aug lo retint e.l gabei
Que fant l’auzeillet menut
Entre.l vert e.l blanc e.l vaire;
Adoncs se deuria traire
Cel qe vo-ol c’amors l’ajut
Vas chaptenensa de drut.
Eu no sui drutz mas domnei,
Ni no tem pena ni fai,
Ni.m rancur leu ni m’irai,
Ni per orgull no m’esfrei;
Pero temessa.m fai mut,
C’a la bella de bon aire
Non aus mostrar ni retraire
Mon cor quil tenc rescondut,
Pols aic son pretz conogut.
Ses prejar e ses autrei
Sui intratz en gre-Eu pantai
Cum pogues semblar verai
Si sa gran valor despléi,
A’enqer non a pretz agut
Domna quan qu nasqea de maire
Qe contra.l sieu valgues gaire;
E si.n sai maint car teengut
Que.l sieus a.l millor vençut
