• Au Joly Jeu

Au joly jeu du pousse avant,
Il fait bon jouer.

L'aultrier m'aloye esbaloyer,
Je rencontray la belle au corps gent,
Soubzriant doulcement, la vois baiser.
Elle en fait doute, mais je la boute,
Laissez, laissez, laissez trut avant.

Au joly jeu...

Pour ung reffuz me fault laisser,
Propos luy tins amoureusement,
Soubzriant doulcement, la vois baiser.
Elle riotte, Dance sans notte
Laissez, laissez, laissez trut avant.

Au joly jeu...

Thanks to all who responded to my requests. The most fun response came
from Dan Ratelle - here is his message:
----------
The Oxford book of French Chansons has:
The jolly game of pressing one's suit is fun to play. The other day I
went
off to see what I could find. I met a pretty little lass. Smiling
sweetly I
went to kiss her. She was hesitant, but I pressed [literally?] her. Come
on,
come on, let's go. The jolly game... Was I to accept a refusal? I spoke
to
her lovingly. Smiling sweetly, I bent to kiss her; she giggled and
danced
without music [now what could that mean...?]. Come on, come on, let's go
[is
that she speaking now?] The jolly game...

As I recall, even the puiss avant was double meaning, as in to advance
forward, or thrust. Typical naughty French.
