Original text and translations

French text Gentil galant, compaignon du raisin, beuvons d'autant du soir et du matin, chascun son pot, et puis hutot, à nostre hotesse ne donnerons point d'argent, mais un credo.

English translation Boon companion, lover of the grape, let’s all drink a good drop morning, noon and night, and then – guess what? ¬ we won’t pay the landlady a single groat. We’ll sing the creed to her instead. Translation by Mick Swithinbank
