lyrics

Tandi qué bouôn mathinnyi bait,
Nou dit qué l'temps s'amende;
Si nou n'vait pon bein cliai d'vant sé,
Eh, bein! qué nou-s'attende.
Tandi qué bouôn mathinnyi bait,
Nou dit qué l'temps s'amende;
Si nou n'vait pon bein cliai d'vant sé,
Eh, bein! qué nou-s'attende.

Tchi trop sé prêsse, i’ peut s'brûler.
Tchi couort trop, pèrd haleine;
I' n'est pon bésouain dé s'traler,
Car nou n'en a qué peine.
Tandi qué bouôn mathinnyi bait,
Nou dit qué l'temps s'amende;
Si nou n'vait pon bein cliai d'vant sé,
Eh, bein! qué nou-s'attende.

Y'en a tchi vont en êratés,
Tchi restent bein driéthe.
Auprès un brîn, les v'lo matés,
I' sont forchis dé siéthe.
Tandi qué bouôn mathinnyi bait,
Nou dit qué l'temps s'amende;
Si nou n'vait pon bein cliai d'vant sé,
Eh, bein! qué nou-s'attende.
