French text  modernized Par fin dépit, je m'en irai seulette Au joli bois, en l'ombre d'un buisson, En attendant passer ma marrisson; Et que j'aurai ma volonté parfaite.

English translation Out of spite, I'm going alone to the greenwood, to a bush's shade, Waiting for my mardiness to disperse; And that is my express wish. (trans Timmi O'Danaos & Donna Ferrentes)
