Original text and translations

French.png French text

Je ne suis pas si sot berger,
Si vous tenais à mon coucher
Que ne vous faise dépouiller robe et chemise
Et puis mon flageolet auriez à votre guise.

English.png English translation

A simpleton shepherd far from it
Dearest, if I were to hold you
And lay you down by my side
I’ll strip you bare
Of your skirt and of your shirt
My flute I will play to your heart’s content
