"Coeur d'amour épris" translates poetically from French as "Heart Seized by Love," "Heart Enamoured," or "Heart Captivated by Love," meaning a heart deeply in love or infatuated, a phrase used in classic literature like René d'Anjou's "Le Livre du Coeur d'Amour Épris".
Coeur: Heart
d'amour: Of love
Épris: Enamoured, infatuated, smitten, captured
A more literal, but less poetic, translation would be "Heart of love in love," but the phrase conveys a state of being utterly captivated by love.
