Translation by Adolphe Thalasso (1858 - 1919)

Pour vivre avec toi que j'aime
Language: French (Français)  after the Japanese (日本語) 
Pour vivre avec toi que j'aime 
Çela m'est bien égal 
D'habiter pauvre cahute, 
De filer la quenouille
Et de faire de la couture. 

Pour vivre avec toi que j'aime 
Cela m'est bien égal
D'aller laver le linge 
Dans l'eau de la rivière
Et de faucher l'herbe.
