Lyrics and translation Thomas Morley - Now is the month of maying




Now is the month of maying
C'est le mois de mai
Now is the month of maying,
C'est le mois de mai,
When merry lads are playing, fa la,
Quand les jeunes gens s'amusent, fa la,
Each with his bonny lass
Chacun avec sa belle
Upon the greeny grass. Fa la.
Sur l'herbe verte. Fa la.
The Spring, clad all in gladness,
Le printemps, vêtu de joie,
Doth laugh at Winter's sadness, fa la,
Se moque de la tristesse de l'hiver, fa la,
And to the bagpipe's sound
Et au son de la cornemuse
The nymphs tread out their ground. Fa la.
Les nymphes dansent sur le sol. Fa la.
Fie then! why sit we musing,
Alors, pourquoi restons-nous à rêver,
Youth's sweet delight refusing? Fa la.
Refusant les joies de la jeunesse ? Fa la.
Say, dainty nymphs, and speak,
Dites, charmantes nymphes, et parlez,
Shall we play at barley-break? Fa la.
Jouerons-nous à "l'orge-break" ? Fa la.
