En l'ombre d'un buissonnet,
Tout au long d'une rivière,
J'ai trouvé là le fils Marguet
Qui priait sa dame chère,
En disant par sa manière:
"Je vous aime fin coeur doux."
Adonc répondit la bergère:
"Robin comment l'attendez vous."

In the shade of a bush

Language: English after the French (Français)

In the shade of a bush
Along the river bank,
I found the lad Marguet
Who was begging his dear lady,
Saying in his way:
"I love you totally, my sweet heart."
To which the shepherdess replied:
"Robin what do you expect?!"
