Transcription
-1-
Oh que je suis heureuse
D’avoir épousé un mari
Qu’il est beau qu’il est aimable
J’en ai le cœur tout réjoui
-2-
Un amant qui m’est si cher
Qui a su charmer mon cœur
Il ne sera pas assez cruel
Pour me faire verser des pleurs
-3-
La compagnie de la table
Sont des gens de la maison
Ah versez-moi de la liqueur
À la santé de mon époux
-4-
C’est aujourd’hui la partance
Qu’il faut quitter maison
Oh versez-moi de la liqueur
À la santé de mon époux
Translation

Oh how happy I am
To have married a husband
So handsome, so lovable
My heart rejoices
- 2 -
A lover who is so dear to me
Who was able to charm my heart
Will not be so cruel
As to make me shed my tears
- 3 -
The company at this table
Are people from this house
Ah pour some drink for me
To the health of my husband
- 4 -
Today is parting time
I have to leave our house
Ah pour some drink for me
To my husband’s health
Oh how happy I am
To have married a husband
So handsome, so lovable
My heart rejoices

A lover who is so dear to me
