Damy parfaict by Jacobus Clemens non Papa — Lyrics
D’amy parfait, le vrai titre et honneur devez avoir.
En parle qui voudra, mon coeur aurez, qui jamais ne fautera.
De bien vous traiter, de cela, soyez en sûr.

About Damy parfaict
Damy parfaict is a secular French chanson by Jacobus Clemens non Papa, scored for an ambitious five voices (SATTT). The text speaks of a perfect love, asserting that the singer's heart belongs irrevocably to their beloved, who can be assured of faithful treatment. The composer's rich scoring allows for intricate polyphonic interplay, bringing out the devotional yet ardent sentiments of the words. This chanson would have been appreciated by connoisseurs of sophisticated Renaissance part-music for its expressive harmonic language and masterful contrapuntal writing.
