Paris - Eloy

At last

We attack

No fears

Battle-cries resound

We are

In the moat

Thy to climb the mighty walls

The Battle rages on

Until the war is won

Ahesd

Near the wall

Our virgin, brave and proud

Injured once again

By a hostile crossbow dart

Ominous signs of fate

Disateur circulates

Badly enjured, ignoring the pain

Remaining obstinate, refusing to return

Instead of retreating, she continues to fight

Encouraging her companions, but her efforts are in vain

Despite all her resistance, we carry her away

Bring her to the camp, disappointed, sad inside

After an inglorious fight

Despite the virgin at our side

Defeated in a horrid way

On a disastrous single day

Shall we dare a new assault?

To fight again now, brave and bold

Finally now the king consents

To proclaim the battle’s end

Jean de Metz:

May the Lord send us a sign

And lead us back on the road to victory
