Dans les prisons de Nantes [English translation]

In the prisons of Nantes*

There was a prisoner

No one came to visit him

But the jailer's daughter

One day he asks her

What to they say about me ?

Downtown they say

That you are to be hung

Since I am to be hung

Untie my feet

The girl was rather young

She untied his feet

The aler prisoner

Jumped into the Loire**

As soon as he got on the bank

He started to sing

I sing for the ladies

Especially the jailer's daughter

If I come back to Nantes

Yes, I will marry her

In the prisons of Nantes

There was a prisoner
