English text
Forresters sound the cheerful horn,
hark to the woods away
Diana with her nymphs this morn
will hunt the stag away.
At length return'd from healthful chace,
let Bacchus crown the day
While Venus with seducing grace
shall all our toil repay
All our toil, all our toil, all our toil repay.
