TESTO DEL LIED

"The king goes hunting"
di Iris Rogers

The king goes hunting,
In the woods of Bourbons,
My adorable shepherdess,
In the woods of Bourbons,
Shepherdess Nanon.

He finds nothing out hunting,
Not a quail, not a pigeon,
My adorable shepherdess,
Not a quail, not a pigeon,
Shepherdess Nanon.

He meets a shepherdess
Who sleeps in the rushes,
My adorable shepherdess,
Who sleeps in the rushes,
Shepherdess Nanon.

"Would you like to be a queen,
In my fine castles?
My adorable shepherdess,
In my fine castles,
Shepherdess Nanon.

"You would have carriages
And quite enough gold,
My adorable shepherdess,
And quite enough gold,
Shepherdess Nanon.

"And a court of stately ladies,
Of dukes and of barons,
My adorable shepherdess,
Of dukes and of barons,
Shepherdess Nanon."

"Thank you, thank you, good Sir,
But I love a humble boy,
Who loves his shepherdess,
But I love a humble boy,
Who loves Nanon!"
