Deck with such your rustic kirtle,

They are type of Colin’s passion.

For with roses do I woo thee,

Sue thee! woo thee! woo thee! sue thee!

Hey, pretty maiden, I come a-courting,

Join me, I pray, in such merry, merry sporting,

With a fa-la-la-la, pretty maiden.

Colin, take you pansies only,

From your dream of love awaken,

Deck with such your cottage lonely,
