In it, he complains bitterly about how his friends seem to have all betrayed him by letting him remain in prison, rather than paying the ransom that would free him. Being a lifelong lover of music, and having learned music composition and poetry as part of his early education1, he occupied his time by eloquently setting his distress to music. Despite being an English King, Richard, as well as most of the nobility, spoke French. This was because the Normans from the coast of France had conquered England less than 130 years prior, and English was considered the language of the peasantry. People who wished to advance typically learned to speak French as a means to that end. Therefore, it is only natural that he would write the lyrics to his music in his first language. Medieval French, however, sounds nothing like modern French. While the vowels are similar, for the most part, the consonants are treated quite differently. In modern French, consonants at the ends of words are typically silent, unless they are followed by a word which begins with a vowel. In medieval French, on the other hand, all the consonants are almost always pronounced. ---- This song was performed by Owain Phyfe.
