Lyrics: Anon

Sus, sus ma soeur, prends bon courage;
Tu n'en mouras non plus que moi.
Quand je fus mise en marriage,
J'étais aussi jeune que toi.
Je te promets, en bonne foi,
Quand tu l'auras fait une fois,
Venant la seconde, je crois
que pour un coup en voudras trois.

Take heart, sister;
it won't kill you any more than it did me;
I was as young as you are
when I was first married.
Honestly, I promise
that after you've done it once,
come the next time, I think
you'll want it a third.
