I'd die for love
He is a man like any other. The word of Kings command him, His heart does not obey. For all his strength and boldness, This knight's spirit is too weak. His crime has no excuses, And no favours may he seek. The laws of Kings don't bend and can't be broken.
I know this knight right well, And he has ever stood beside me. With steel he's answered insults, Defended chivalry. And oft this man contended For the honour of your wife. His action were not proper, But should not cost him his life. His service past should earn of you some mercy.
I love my uncle's wife. For her I'd gladly suffer, She is my heart's delight. Isolde the one who tempts me, And she for whom I'm pure. My love for her confounds me, And is all of which I'm sure. I understand my brother's contradictions.
Have no fear of predilection. For though he is my father, He is my source of shame. He join in sinful union With my unbeguiling mother. And for all his claim at virtue, He has gone and bed another. The laws of God declare this act damnation.
