Poem Interpretation.

Original

Ma mignonne,
Je vous donne
Le bon jour;
Le séjour
C’est prison.
Guérison
Recouvrez,
Puis ouvrez
Votre porte
Et qu’on sorte
Vitement,
Car Clément
Le vous mande.
Va, friande
De ta bouche,
Qui se couche
En danger
Pour manger
Confitures;
Si tu dures
Trop malade,
Couleur fade
Tu prendras,
Et perdras
L’embonpoint.
Dieu te doint
Santé bonne,
Ma mignonne.

My Version

Girl in bed
Rest your head
I send hope
That you cope
Keep your mind
You will find
Go out-doors
Walk the floors
You must go
For Fecteau
Wants you to
Return too
Enjoy life
Do not strife
While asleep
Try to keep
Food a-plenty
Waste no pennies
Much too ill
So stay still
Awaken
Don't get taken
By sickness
Your thickness
You must keep
Now go sleep
Rest your head
Girl in bed.
