    My heart with pity earns to see this sight
    Fair blows the wind for France
    take my heart in rescue of my friends
    the day grows old

    How does "earns" fit in with "My heart with pity
    earns to see this sight"?

    There's a missing "y".

    ". . . yearns to see this sight"

    Jai Maharaj, Jyotishi
    Om Shanti
