Quand Je Menai Mes Chevaux Boire

When I led my horses to drink

When I led my horses to drink
Hurray, hurray, hurray, hurray
Hurray, oh my Nanette
When I led my horses to drink
I heard the cuckoo sing
I heard the cuckoo sing

He told me in his language
Hurray...
Your beloved will be buried

Ah! What are you saying, wicked beast
Hurray...
I was with her yesterday evening

But when I was in the heath
Hurray...
I heard the bells ring

But when I was in the church
Hurray...
I heard the priests sing

I kicked in the hunt
Hurray...
Wake up if you're sleeping

No, I neither sleep nor slumber
Hurray...
I hear you in Hell

See, my mouth is full of dirt
Hurray...
And yours is full of love

There's a place next to me
Hurray...
And it's been kept for you
