Au joli bois (after Claudin de Sermisy) for tenor horn (horn in E flat) and piano by David Warin Solomons Piano - Digital Sheet Music

Instrumental arrangement of a Renaissance song Au joly boys, en l'ombre d'ung soucy, M'y fault aller pour passer ma tristesse, Remply de dueil d'ung souvenir transy, Menger m'y fault maintes poires d'angoisse, En ung jardin remply de noires flours De mes deux yeulx feray larmes et plours. Fy de lyesse et hardiesse! Regret m'oppresse, Puis que j'ay perdu mes amours. Las! trop j'endure, Le temps m'y dure, Je vous asseure: Soulas, vous n'avez plus de cours! I have to go to the pretty wood and spend my grief in the shadow of worry Filled with mourning for a memory that transfixes me I must eat such bitter fruit So much for jollity and bold adventures, I am oppressed with regret Because I have lost my love Alas I endure too much, time hangs heavy on me, I tell you for sure: Joy and solace are no more.
