French text

Aller m'y faut sur la verdure,

Chercher parti en quelque bonne part,

Etre hardi, joyeux, frisque et gaillard,

Oncqu' ne trouva couard pâture.

Ami je n'ai qui me procure,

Aller m'y faut sur la verdure.

Ami je n'ai qui me procure.

Du jeu d'amour, las tant j'endure,

Aller m'y faut sur la verdure.

Du jeu d'amour, las tant j'endure.

Si trouvais un gallois,

De mon vouloir ferait ouverture.

Si j'entrais en ce bois,

Rencontrais quelque créature.

Aller m'y faut sur la verdure,

Aller m'y faut sur la verdure.

English translation by Mick Swithinbank
I must go out into the meadows
To find myself a man in some fine place,
Someone bold, merry, lively and sturdy:
No coward ever found nourishment.
I have no friend to find one for me,
so I must go out into the meadows.
I have no friend to find one for me.
The game of love makes me suffer so much
that I must go out into the meadows.
The game of love makes me suffer so much.
If I were to find a Welshman,
He would overcome my will.
If I went into these woods,
I would meet some creature.
I must go out into the meadows,
I must go out into the meadows.
