My Old Little Skirt
My old little skirt,All ripped from going to dance.
Now I have a new one,
Made in the latest fashion, to wear for the first time.
Do not place your hand on my skirt!
Ah! From far away, say whatever you want:
You won't lose anything, for you're a man...
Ah! I will lose, for I'm a woman!
Oh, don't look my way!
Ah, don't look so very, very intently...
Ah, don't look my way
For I'm not your darling one!
For I'm not your darling one,
For I'm not your love!
I'm not like the fig tree,
Which gives fruit without giving flowers...
My skirt,
That looks so pretty when taking walks.
I left it under the dew...
Now it's all silvery, the colour of moonlight!
My striped skirt
Looks all ruined: I can't go to dance!
I left it at the riverbank...
It was cold and it started to get bleached!
You're saying no, no...
But you may come around and want it

The Peasant Women Who Weed The Fields
I learned to singWhile ploughing the wet soil
There, in the lonely fields,
As I thought about you, my darling one...
So many poppy flowers can be seen
Beyond those wheat fields.
As many as the kisses given
By peasant girls and herdsboys!
[Chorus:]
The peasant women, sing as they weed the fields
About their sorrows, their loves
Yet they don't sing: they're praying
Before an altar all covered in flowers!
Before an altar covered in flowers
Each one of them is a wish
