Trois monodies pour trois poèmes de Tristan Klingsor

Song Cycle by Georges Elbert Migot (1891 - 1976)

1. Les baladins  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: French (Français) 
Quand passeront les baladins de Bohême 
Avec leurs roses et leurs oiseaux, 
Je t'achèterai leur plus belle traîne, 
Une jolie traîne de Bohême 
A rendre jaloux tous les damoiseaux. 

Je t'achèterai des bouquets de roses, 
  Des lilas et des soucis ; 
Je t'achèterai les plus douces choses, 
  Des bouquets de roses 
  Et des violettes aussi. 

Mais — pauvre adorée — je n'ai acheté 
Qu'un mignon cercueil de satin velouté 
Où comme un fou d'amour ! moi-même 
J'ai mis ton cher squelette de fiancée, 
Quand les baladins de Bohême 
  Sont passés.

2. Au jardin joli  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: French (Français) 
Au jardin joli 
Il y a des roses, 
Il y a des lis... 
Au jardin joli 
Est-il un fol qui veuille 
Faire la jolie chose. 
Faire la jolie cueille 
  Des roses? 

Au jardin d'amour 
Il y a des lèvres, 
Beau page ou pastour.. 
Au jardin d'amour 
Est-il un loi qui veuille 
Faire le joli rêve, 
Faire la jolie cueille 
  Des lèvres?

3. Ballade du routier  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: French (Français) 
Gai routier, que ramage la ballade ? 

Parle-t-elle des ribambelles 
De fous et de ménestrels 
Qui s'en vont la rose au chaperon ? 
Ou bien de Maud et d'Isabelle 
Pleurant à la croisée ou sur le perron, 
  En parle-t-elle ? 

Gai routier, que ramage la ballade ? 

Parle-t-elle des varlets et des veneurs 
Avec l'arc, le gerfaut ou la fleur, 
Qui s'en vont sonnant du cor par les venelles ? 
Ou de celles d'Ys et d'Elseneur 
Qui portaient au poing la colombelle, 
  En parle-t-elle? 

Gai routier, que ramage la ballade!' 
Parle-t-elle d'Elaine et de Roselis 
Cajolant leurs pages jolis 
Et cueillant la pimprenelle ? 
Ou bien des sires des fleurs de lys 
Qui moururent à la croisade, 
  En parle-t-elle ? 

Gai routier, que ramage la ballade ?
