A! Tantas bonas chansos!
E tan bo vers aurai faih,
don ja no•m mezer' en plaih,
domna, si•m pesses de vos
que fossetz vas me tan dura!		    Oh! So many good songs!
And such good verses I've been making,
to the trouble of which I'd not have put myself,
lady, if I'd known you
would be so hard on me!
– Bernart de Ventadorn (before 1180AD)

I have such bad news for Mr. Smith. I invite him to google "ghazal".
