Lyrics: ? Mathurin Régnier

Ce disait une jeune dame
À un vieillard: "Vous m'y fâchez,
Et vous tuez le corps et l'âme,
Pour néant à ce que tachez.
Allez faire ailleurs vos marchés:
Mal vous sied cette mignotise,
Quand est de moi je suis promise.
Pas n'y voyez clair à demi,
Je n'y leverai ma chemise;
Cela se garde pour l'ami".

This young girl says
to an old man: You annoy me,
and extinguish both body and soul,
Nullifying whatever you soil.
Do your business elsewhere:
This cutie suits you badly,
since I am promised in marriage.
Make no mistake,
I'm not going to lift my blouse;
That's reserved for my boyfriend.
