1 I met Émilie
At the first daffodils
She was so pretty
From the daffodils to the last lilacs
In the farm asleep
Every time I went to see her
Her father with a gun
Waited for me behind the trough
He chased me away
Aux first daffodils
Shot at me
From daffodils to the last lilacs.
2 One day in the wolf barn
At the first daffodils
She jumped on my lap
From daffodils to the last lilacs
A pitchfork pricked me
I got up screaming
I tried to escape through the woods
His father threw me into the 'pond
He pricked me
At the first daffodils
He forked me
From the daffodils to the last lilacs.
3 In the attic on the hay
To the first daffodils
Took the girl and drank her wine
From the daffodils to the last lilacs
Her father seeing the painting
Introduced me a little late
The frogs and the toads
At the bottom of the duck pond
He insulted me
At the first daffodils
And drowned me
Daffodils to the last lilacs.
4 I knew salt and lead
To the first daffodils
I knew the pig trough
From the daffodils to the last lilacs
br/>I left my loves there
A thousand times I came close to death
And he is still behind me
What does it matter to me, I am still running
br/>I'm going I'm going
To the first daffodils
From the meadow to the wood
From the daffodils to the last lilacs
La la la la la la la la la...
