About this person
Jordan Bonel, sometimes also de Confolens, was a troubadour from western Aquitaine about whom very little is definitively known except that he was associated with the court of Alfonso II of Aragon. His vida states that he was from Saintonge and he appears to have been contemporary with Bertran de Born. His surviving corpus probably consists of three cansos, wherein only one is attributed to him, though its melody survives:S'ira d'amor tengués amic gaudent, non fora cel que mièlhs amès de me; car pena e dòl e dams e marriment ai sofertat longament; e'l conven qu'ieu aja'l mal e ma domna lo ben. E pos aissí li plai amb me de vire, qu'ar sap e crei que non l'ausi redire, vuèlh tot sofrir s'ela'l vòl et Amors: gardatz s'ieu sui dels fenhents amadors!
