Le roi à fait battre tambour(original) |
| 1. Le roi a fait battre tambour |
| Pour voir toutes ses dames |
| Et la première qu’il a vue |
| Lui a ravi son âme |
| 2. Marquis dis-moi la connais-tu |
| Qui est cette jolie dame? |
| Le marquis lui a répondu |
| Sire roi, c’est ma femme |
| 3. Marquis, tu es plus heureux que moi |
| D’avoir femme si belle |
| Si tu voulais me la donner |
| Je me chargerais d’elle |
| 4. Sire, si vous n'étiez le roi |
| J’en tirerais vengeance |
| Mais puisque vous êtes le roi |
| A votre obéissance |
| 5. Marquis ne te fâche donc pas |
| T’auras ta récompense |
| Je te ferai dans mes armées |
| Beau maréchal de France |
| 6. Adieu, ma mie, adieu, mon cœur ! |
| Adieu mon espérance |
| Puisqu’il nous faut servir le roi |
| Séparons-nous d’ensemble |
| 7. La reine a fait faire un bouquet |
| De belles fleurs de lys |
| Et la senteur de ce bouquet |
| A fait mourir marquise |
| (translation) |
| 1. The king caused the drum to beat |
| To see all his ladies |
| And the first he saw |
| stole his soul |
| 2. Marquis tell me do you know her |
| Who is this pretty lady? |
| The marquis answered him |
| Sir King, she is my wife |
| 3. Marquis, you are happier than me |
| To have such a beautiful wife |
| If you wanted to give it to me |
| I'll take care of her |
| 4. Sire, if you weren't the king |
| I would take revenge |
| But since you're the king |
| At your obedience |
| 5. Marquis don't get mad |
| You will have your reward |
| I will make you into my armies |
| Handsome Marshal of France |
| 6. Farewell, sweetheart, farewell, sweetheart! |
| Farewell my hope |
| Since we must serve the king |
| Let's separate together |
| 7. The queen had a bouquet made |
| Beautiful lily flowers |
| And the scent of this bouquet |
| Made marquise die |
