So much I love
So much I love joy and love and song,
mirth, sport and courtesy,
that in the world there is no wealth nor riches
that could make me feel happier.
Therefore I know well that my lady holds the keys
of all the good that I expect and hope for,
and none of this can I have without her.
Her great courage and her modest look,
her gentle speech and her fair company
have made me always love her dominion
more than any other's I have seen before or since;
and if her loving and tender heart
deigns not to keep me under her mercy,
love cannot please me with anything else.
As Berenguer de Palou did, many others trovadours like Raimbaut deVaqueiras, Bernart de Ventadorn, Adam de la Halle, etc. developed the courtly love conception.
