(modernized)
Une dame par un matin,
après avoir son picotin,
du jeu d'amour non assouie,
"Vrai Dieu", dit-elle, "quelle vie!
Encore un petit coup, mon doux ami,
je ne suis pas soulée à demi".

So one morning, this lady
(she's had a portion, but
she's unsated by the nookie)
is like: "Strewth, what a life!
Another sesh, kind mate,
I'm only half stuffed".

(trans Timmi O'Danaos & Donna Ferrentes)
