Hatez-vous de me faire grace by Orlando di Lasso — Lyrics
Hâtezvous de me faire grâce
sans point user de cruauté,
car si mon amitié se passe,
adieu command votre beauté.

About Hatez-vous de me faire grace
Orlando di Lasso's Chanson Hatez-vous de me faire grace presents a plea for mercy and affection. The text urges a beloved to be swift in granting grace, warning that cruelty will lead to the end of friendship and the loss of beauty's power. Originally a secular work, a sacred contrafact adaptation transforms the plea into a spiritual appeal to God. This SATB arrangement allows the four voices to express the human drama of the secular text or the spiritual yearning of the contrafact version, offering directors flexibility in programming.
