The humility of a troubador? Marcabru Canso 14

The virtue of the one I sing
reigns high, without dispute,
and her valour is sovereign,
even if disputed,
for, if I don't wake up for her,
don't expect that another awakens me!

He who [writes?]the words and dance
does not know whence the dancing comes.

Marcabru has written the dance
and does not know whence the dancing comes.
