The first verse of an Alba (Morning Song) by the Troubadour Guirat de Bornelh (1138-1215). The language is Occitan which was a Romance language spoken in what is now southern France during Medieval times.

Translation:
Glorious King, true light and clarity,
Almighty God, Lord, if it pleases you,
To my companion be a steady aid,
For I have not seen him since the night has come,
And soon it will be morning.

Vielle by Albert Cofrin, recorded at the Amherst Early Music Festival in 2010.
