1. I saw my master's dogs standing
And sitting in the middle of the road

2. Some with long swaying tails
Wagging and playing happily

3. They eat meat so I wished I were
A small dog of my master

4. Oh master, provide me a dog
To eat with my friend every day

5. I see the butcher, enemy of my friend
Bad luck, my smiling friend

6. If I could choose, I'd only find
Meat in my bag

7. Meat is the twin of my soul
Who would hurt that twin?

8. It's as if meat during Christian Lent
Tricks me, cousin of the patriarch

9. And the best that people have seen is meat
Whose broth is added to the flour
