sont faits égaux tous deux comme de cire,

L'un veut railler,

L'autre gaudir et rire.
L'autre gaudir et rire.  
L'un boit du bon, l'autre ne boit du pire

<poem>The abbot in his pomp and his serving man
Are cut from a single cloth, have a common aim:
Are cut from a single cloth, have a common aim:
Both great and small find pleasure where they can,
Both great and small find pleasure where they can,
Line 50: Line 47:
There's wine to fetch, the prelate cannot wait.
There's wine to fetch, the prelate cannot wait.
The servant, weary, grumbles and complains
The servant, weary, grumbles and complains
But vainly longs for sleep while a drop remains.
But vainly longs for sleep while a drop remains.}}

Monsieur l'Abbé et monsieur son valet,
sont faits égaux tous deux comme de cire,
l'un est grand fol, l'autre petit follet:
L'un veut railler,
L'autre gaudir et rire.
L'un boit du bon, l'autre ne boit du pire
Mais un débat au soir entr'eux s'émeut,
Car maître Abbé toute la nuit
ne veut être sans vin
que sans secours ne meure:
Et son valet jamais dormir ne peut
tandis qu'au pot une goutte en demeure.

English.png English translation

The abbot in his pomp and his serving man
Are cut from a single cloth, have a common aim:
Both great and small find pleasure where they can,
Both love to laugh, accounting it no shame.
One drinks of the best, the other not the worst.
Yet discord rears its head as the hour grows late,
For all night long the abbot's plagued by thirst:
There's wine to fetch, the prelate cannot wait.
The servant, weary, grumbles and complains
But vainly longs for sleep while a drop remains.
