Original text and translations

French text Et la, la, la Faites-lui bonne chère. Me levai par un matin La fraîche matinée M’en entrai en nos jardins Pour cueillir giroflée. Là trouvai le mien ami Qui l’avait amassée. Et la, la, la, Faites-lui bonne chère À la belle bergère.

English translation And la, la, la Make sure to show all your charm. One fine day when up I got In morning‘s early hour To the garden at a trot I went to get my flower And there I found my lover Who’d plucked it in the bower And la, la, la, Make sure to show all your charm To the maiden from the farm. Translation by Thomas Daughton
