Lyrics: Anon

Arrosez vos violiers;
Arrosez vos violettes.
La fille d'un jardinier
Etait aimant par amourette,
Prétendant faire la chosette.
Le jeu d'amour trop bien lui haitte
Lui a dit: "Mon ami cher,
Arrosez vos violettes;
Arrosez vos violiers".

Water your violets;
water your gillyflowers.
So this gardener's daughter
is well up for a fling;
hoping she'll be getting one.
She's well happy to bonk,
and she's like: "My dear mate,
water your violets;
water your gillyflowers".
