CHANT DE QUÊTE – 1
(Walloon)

Madame, dji vins hèyi
Po veûy çou qu'vos m'din.rîz.

Boutéz foû, boutéz d'vins
Jusqu'à tant qu'I seûy bin plin.
Ine pitite hèye, Madame,

COLLECTION SONG 1


Ma'am, I've come to collect
To see what you will give.
You made waffles,
You'll let me taste them,
Put some outside, put some inside
Till it's (my bag) very full.
A little present, Ma'am,
Because I have sung so well!
You can hear the recording here. It's the first song.
You can hear a slightly different version recited here
