Tempus est iocundum, o virgines, modo congaudete vos iuvenes. Oh - oh, totus floreo, iam amore virginali totus ardeo, novus, novus amor est, quo pereo. Mea me comfortat promissio, mea me deportat negatio. Oh - oh, totus floreo, iam amore virginali totus ardeo, novus, novus amor est, quo pereo. Tempore brumali vir patiens, animo vernali lasciviens. Oh - oh, totus floreo, iam amore virginali totus ardeo, novus, novus amor est, quo pereo. Mea mecum ludit virginitas, mea me detrudit simplicitas. Oh - oh, totus floreo, iam amore virginali totus ardeo, novus, novus amor est, quo pereo. Veni, domicella, cum gaudio; veni, veni, pulchra, iam pereo. Oh - oh, totus floreo, iam amore virginali totus ardeo, novus, novus amor est, quo pereo.

Giunto è il tempo felice, Oh vergini, insieme con noi godete, voi giovani! Oh, oh, oh, tutto in fiore sto, e di amore virginale tutto brucio! Nuovo, nuovo amore mi farà morire! Mi conforta la promessa, mi sconforta la ripulsa. Oh, oh, oh, tutto in fiore sto, e di amore virginale tutto brucio! Nuovo, nuovo amore mi farà morire! Durante l'inverno l'uomo è svogliato, a primavera è tutto eccitato. Oh, oh, oh, tutto in fiore sto, e di amore virginale tutto brucio! Nuovo, nuovo amore mi farà morire! Si fa gioco di me la mia verginità, mi butta giù la mia semplicità. Oh, oh, oh, tutto in fiore sto, e di amore virginale tutto brucio! Nuovo, nuovo amore mi farà morire! Vieni, padroncina mia, tutta di gioia colma, vieni, vieni, mia bella che di morire mi sembra. Oh, oh, oh, tutto in fiore sto, e di amore virginale tutto brucio! Nuovo, nuovo amore mi farà morire!
