The king did beat drum
To see all his ladies
And the first one he saw
Marquis tell me do you know her
Who is this pretty lady?
Marquis, you're happier than I am
To have such a beautiful wife
If you wanted to give it to me
Sire, if you were not the king
But since you're the king
Marquis doesn't get mad at you
I'll make you in my armies
Beautiful Marshal of France
Goodbye, my sweetheart, farewell, my heart!
Because we have to serve the king
The queen had a bouquet made
And the scent of this bouquet
