from Volkslieder (Folksongs)

Nique nac no muse!
Language: French (Français) 
Le bell', si nous étions dedans ce haut bois,
On s'y mangeriom' fort bien des noix;
On s'en mangeriom' à note loisi,
Nique nac no muse!
Belle, vous m'avez t'embarlifi, t'embarlificoté
Par votre beauté!

Le bell', si nous étions devant su vivier,
On s'y mettriom des p'tits canards nager;
On s'en mettriom' à note loisi,
Nique nac no muse!
Belle, vous m'avez t'embarlifi, t'embarlificoté
Par votre beauté!

Le bell', si nous étions dedans su fourneau,
On s'y mangeriom' des p'tits patés tout chauds,
On s'y mangeriom' des p'tits patés tout chauds;
On s'en mangeriom' à note loisi,
Nique nac no muse!
Belle, vous m'avez t'embarlifi, t'embarlificoté,
Par votre beauté!

Le bell', si nous étiom' dedans su jardin,
On s'y chanteriom soir et matin,
On s'y chanteriom soir et matin,
On s'en mettriom' à note loisi,
Nique nac no muse!
Belle, vous m'avez t'embarlifi, t'embarlificoté,
Par votre beauté!
