from Volkslieder (Folksongs)

Is sont trois cornemuseux
Language: French (Français) 
Is sont trois cornemuseux
Qui [traversont]1 la ville,
Ramenant les épouseux
De l'église chez eux.

Les musettes qu'ont de blancs ribans,
En leur honneur entonnent,
Tous [leux]2 vieux airs, [leux]2 plus jolis chants
A la joi' des passants.

Les époux sont assortis,
Is sont de riche mine,
Ben pris dans [leux]2 biaux hébits,
Chacun les applaudit.

A vous toutes vendra paré jour,
Car, mes charmantes belles,
Au mariage conduit l'amour
Chaque fille à son tour.

Is sont trois cornemuseux
Qui [parcouront]1 la ville,
Proumenant les épouseux
Et la noce [anvec]3 zeux.
