Mon païré mé n'o lougado,
Per ona gorda lo bacado,
Tchut, tchut, tchut!
Tchut, tchut,
que z'o cal pas diré!
Tchut, tchut,
mènès pas ton dè brut!
Né l'i soui pas to lèu estado,
Què moun golont m'o rencountrado,
Tchut, etc.
N'aï pas ièu fatso de fuzados,
Cou m'o fat guel de poutounados!
Tchut, etc.
Sé n'io bè de miliour couóïfado,
N'io pas de miliour embrassado!
Tchut, etc.

My father found me a job:
To guard the cattle,
Hush, hush, hush!
Hush, hush,
say nothing about it!
Hush, hush,
don’t make so much noise!
No sooner had I arrived there,
My galant [lover] met me,
Hush, etc.
I didn’t do a lot of spinning.
Compared to the amount of kissing!
Hush, etc.
There may be girls who are better coiffed.
[But] they are no better at kissing!
Hush, etc.
