French text

En escoutant le chant mélodieulx
De ses plaisans et tant doulx rossignieulx
Qui vont disant ainsy, ainsy, ainsy,
ainsy, ainsy, ainsy, ainsy, ainsy, ainsy,
L'ung d'eux me dist: "Parcy, passez, parcy,
Et vous aurez qui chantera le mieulx."
Tous tous tous tous veulliez estre songneulx
D'amour servir loyaulment en tous lieux
Et luy crier mercy, En escoutant.
Fuyez, fuyez, fuyez, gens merencolieulx
Suyvez les dames en tous lieux
Et de soucy dictes fy fy fy
Retournez cy mardi, mardi,
Et vous serez plus que devant joyeulx,
En escoutant.
