Ung jour passe bien escoutoye
Une fillette secretement
en lieu secret devienant ioye
Qui triumphoit ioyeusement
Considerant qu'en mariage
Deuoit avoir son advantage
Au joli jeu sans insolence
Dont elle dit en son langage
Ie suys gay pour dimence.

modernized
Un jour passé, bien écoutaie
Une fillette secrètement
En lieu secret devienant joie
Qui triomphait joyeusement
Considérant qu'en mariage
Devoit avoir son avantage
Au joli jeu sans insolence.
Dont elle dit en son langage,
"Je suis gai pour Dimanche".

English.png English translation


The other day I overheard (most serendipitiously)
A chit, behind closed doors,
In a clandestine pleasure-inducing activity
(concluded with utmost satifaction!).
She was excogitating that in marriage
She might indulge her predilection
For sexual congress without attracting opprobrium.
On which matter, she propounded, in her idiolect,
"I'm well up for Sunday"

(trans. Timmi O'Danaos & Donna Ferrentes)
