English text
Adam lay ybounden,
Bounden in a bond;
Four thousand winter
Thought he not too long.
And all was for an apple,
An apple that he took,
As clerkès finden
Written in their book.
Né had the apple taken been
The apple taken been,
Né had never our lady
Abeen heavené queen.
Blessèd be the time
That apple taken was.
Therefore we moun singen
Deo Gracias!
