The Wild Goose [French translation]

Did you ever see a wild goose

Sailing o'er the ocean?

Ranzo, Ranzo, weigh heigh!

They're just like them pretty girls,

When they gets the notion.

Ranzo, Ranzo, weigh heigh!

The other morning

I was walking by the river.

Ranzo, Ranzo, weigh heigh!

When I saw a young girl walking

With her topsails all a-quiver.

Ranzo, Ranzo, weigh heigh!

I said, "Pretty fair maid

And how are you this morning?"

Ranzo, Ranzo, weigh heigh!

She said none the better

for the seeing of you

Ranzo, Ranzo, weigh heigh!
