Les trois filles du Prince, Elles sont à l’ombre dessous. On a deux qui rient et chantent, Tro lo lo lo lo lo lèro lô! On a deux qui rient et chantent, L’autre pleure toujours. Le Prince vient et la dit: Tro lo lo lo lo lo lèro lô! Le Prince vient et la dit: "Pernette, comment ça va?” “Je pleure pour les âmes Tro lo lo lo lo lo lèro lô! Je pleure pour les âmes Des pauvres amants! “Qui sont mortes pour l‘autre Tro lo lo lo lo lo lèro lô! Qué soun morts l’un pel l’autro Pour complaire l’amour!”
