Faulte d'Argent Lyrics

Faulte d'argent
C'est douleur non pareille
Se ie le dis
Las ie sçay bien pourquoy
Sans de quibus
Il se fault tenir quoy
Femme qui dort
Pour argent le reveille

[Note: this song comes from the 16th century, which is why the French is a little different from modern French. The modern French equivalent is:
Faulte d'argent
C'est douleur sans de pareille
Si je le dis
Hélas, je sais bien pourquoi
Si on n'a aucun d'argent
Il faut garder tout d'autres
Une femme dormant
Pour argent se reveille

English:
Want of money
Is pain unequaled
If I say it
Alas, I know well why
If one has no money
One must cling to all else
A sleeping woman
Awakes for money
