Beauty is in the garden of love,

Beauty is in the garden of love.

There she has lain for a month or five weeks.

Laridondon, laridondaine.

Her father seeks her everywhere,

Her father seeks her everywhere.

Her lover is broken-hearted.

Laridondon, laridondaine.

"Shepherd, o shepherd, have you not seen,

Shepherd, o shepherd, have you not seen,

My beloved pass by here?

Laridondon, laridondaine.

"She is down in yonder valley,

She is down in yonder valley,

recounting her woes to a bird."

Laridondon, laridondaine.

The beautiful bird has flown,

The beautiful bird has flown,

And sorrow carries him far away.

Laridondon, laridondaine.
