Meire, botez le chien queure

Meir' ! botez le chien queure :
Voiqui l'galant que vint.
Ah ! régalez-lu bin :
Ç'ast le galant de votre feille.
Ah ! régalez-lu bin,
Aivou des treuff's et du boudin.

Al évot d'joulies guâtes,
Pus des jartères quioquées.
A quépot dans ses doigts :
C'étot pour drosser sai crinieîre,
A quépot dans ses doigts :
C'étot pour drosser ses pois !

Voiqui l'galant, l'galant que vint.
Ah ! régalez, galez-lu bin,
Aivou des treuff's et du boudin,
Din ! Din !
