2. Le nez de Martin  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: French (Français) 
Martin [prit]1 sa serpe,
Au bois s'en alla.
Il faisait si froid
Que son nez y gela.
 Ma sœur, quel dommage !
 Ma sœur, quel dommage !
 Ah ! quel dommage, ma sœur,
 Ma sœur, quel dommage !

Il faisait si froid
Que son nez y gela.
Martin prit sa serpe,
Son nez, il coupa.

Par là il passe
Trois de ces soeurs-là.

Ah ! se disaient-elles,
Qu'est-ce que c'est de cela ?

C'est le nez d'un homme,
Ne le vois-tu pas ?

Cela nous servira
Dedans notre couvent.

Pour éteindre les cierges
Au bout d'un échalas.

Text Authorship:

  • from Volkslieder (Folksongs) , 18th century
