(modernised)
Je suis déshéritée puisque j'ai perdu mon ami,
Seulette il m'a laissée pleine de pleurs et de souci.
Rossignol du bois joli, sans plus faire demeure,
Va t'en dire a mon ami que pour lui suis tourmentée.

I am dispossessed since I have lost my sweetheart,
He has left me alone full of tears and care.
Pretty nightingale of the woods, without demur
Go and tell my sweetheart that I yearn for him.

(trans Timmi O'Danaos & Donna Ferrentes)
