Margarideta, lèva-te matin,
S'avança la matinada,
Margarideta lèva-te matin,
Te cal pas totjorn dormir
Ieu òc me levariái plan
Se aviái una raubeta,
Ieu òc me levariái plan
Mas de raubeta n'ai pas.
Pèire va a la plaça,
Pèire lèu li'n crompa,
Pèire lèu se'n torna,
Pèire es aquí,
Margarideta lèva-te matin.
Margarideta, lèva-te matin
S'avança la matinada
Margarideta lèva-te matin
Te cal pas totjorn dormir
Ieu òc me levariái plan
Se aviái una capeta,
Ieu òc me levariái plan
Mas de capeta n'ai pas.
Pèire va a la plaça,
Pèire lèu li'n crompa,
Pèire lèu se'n torna,
Pèire es aquí,
Margarideta lèva-te matin.
Margarideta, lèva-te matin,

Se aviái unas sabatas,
Ieu òc me levariái plan
Mas de sabatas n'ai pas.

Maggie, get up early,
The morning is going fast,
Maggie, get up early,
You mustn't always sleep.
Yes, I'd surely get up
If I had a little dress,
Yes, I'd surely get up
But I have no little dress.
Peter goes to the market square,
Peter soon buys her one,
Peter soon goes back,
Peter is here.

If I had a little cape,

But I have no little cape.
