Elpénor

by Maurice Jaubert (1900 - 1940)

1. Chanson de la Sirène Rousse
 (Sung text)

Language: French (Français) 
Je vois de Bellac l'abbatiale triste,
Le Mail et ce lac (qui n'existe!)
Et je vois encore l'automne en personne
Sonner dans un cor
Qui ne sonne;
La foire d'été;
Et Tante Solange haïr l'invité
Qui ne mange;
Ma jeunesse avec
Qui, Dieu sait sans charme!
Tire d'un coeur sec
Cette larme!

2. Chanson du Pilote
 (Sung text)

Language: French (Français) 
Eclissé
Eclissa
Mon bateau t'entraîne
Nous avons tous fait ça comme chante Hélène
Gentil fuseau, ciseau méchant
Marchandi's pour les filles
Eclissé, qu'il est beau le champ
Qu'on fauche sans faucilles!
