about

Part song by Claude Debussy

lyrics

Quant j'ai ouy le tabourin
Sonner, pour s'en aller au may,

When I heard the little drum
call us to the Maytime frolics,

En mon lit n'en ay fait affray
Ne levé mon chef du coissin;

I didn't let it stir me from my bed
I didn't lift my head from my pillow,

En disant: il est trop matin
Ung peu je me rendormiray:

and I said "It is too early,
I will sleep some more."

Jeunes gens partent leur butin;
De nonchaloir m'accointeray

young folks share out their spoils,
But I will not care,

A lui je m'abutineray
Trouvé l'ay plus prouchain voisin;

I find my nearest neighbour
in nonchalance.
