Lucescit jam o socii

Language: Latin

Lucescit jam o socii,
Nous tardons trop à dejuner,
Habemus tantum ocii
Que ferious nous jusque au diner?
Jam parata sunt omnia,
Mettons nous à table en bon heur.
Si quis quaeret, Quare? Quia
Trop juner aporte douleur.
Nunc bibamus non segniter,
C'est trop manger sans boyrevun coup.
Bibamus bis, ter, & quater,
Puis chanterons Or sus a coup.
Non habentes pecuniam,
L'hoste dira ce qu'il voudra,
Ite per aliam viam,
On le payra quand on pourra.
