Mélisande au fuseau Il ne faut plus filer : Au soir entends trembler Une chanson d'oiseau. Est-ce d'un damoiseau D'un page ou d'un varlet ? Mélisande au fuseau Il ne faut plus filer : Je ne sais s'il fut beau Comme une rose ou laid Ou sage, ou fol, ou sot ; Mais depuis n'a filé Mélisande au fuseau.

2. Au jardin joli  [sung text not yet checked]
Au jardin joli Il y a des roses, Il y a des lis... Au jardin joli Est-il un fol qui veuille Faire la jolie chose. Faire la jolie cueille Des roses? Au jardin d'amour Il y a des lèvres, Beau page ou pastour.. Au jardin d'amour Est-il un loi qui veuille Faire le joli rêve, Faire la jolie cueille Des lèvres?

3. Au bord des eaux  [sung text not yet checked]
Au bord des eaux Des damoiseaux De Tyr Prennent des oiseaux Dans leurs réseaux Pour rire, pour rire. Un oisel est mort Dans ce vieillot décor De Tyr : Qui veut jouer encor, Qui veut jouer du cor Pour rire, pour rire ? Parmi les courlis Rosely De Tyr N'entendra plus les tirelis Des bengalis Pour rire, pour rire... Or donc, ma Douce, voici le virelai Que les mignons varlets De Tyr S'amusaient jadis à violer Sur les cordes d'argent filé Pour rire, pour rire.
