Giorgio Mainerio (1535-1582)

La la la, je ne l'o, je ne l′o,

Il est un homme en no ville,
Qui de sa femme est jaloux.
Il n'est pas jaloux sans cause,
Mais il est cocu du tout,

Et la la la, je ne l′o, je ne l′o, ...

I n'est pan jaloux sans cause,
Mais il est cocu du tout.
Il l′apprete, et s'il la mène
Au marche′, s'en va à tout.

Et la la la, je ne l′o, je ne l'o, ...

French Suite

I) French Ball Dance and Saltarello
Giorgio Mainerio (1535-1582)
II) I Dare Not Say It (1572)
Pierre Certon (1510 - 1572)

La la la, I dare not tell you, I dare not tell you,
I dare not say it,
La la la, I'll tell you,
And la la la, I'll tell you.

There is a man in our town,
Who is jealous of his wife.
He's not jealous without cause,
But he's a thoroughgoing cuckold,

And la la la, I dare not tell you, I dare not tell you, ...

He's not jealous without cause,
But he's a thoroughgoing cuckold.
He gets her ready, and if he takes her
To the market, he goes off with everything.

And la la la, I dare not tell you, I dare not tell you, ...
