Deux Chansons

Song Cycle by Jean-Émile-Paul Cras (1879 - 1932)

1. Le Roi Loudivic
 (Sung text)

Language: French (Français) 
Le roi Loudivic avait fait projet
de lever tribut sur ceux de Bretagne,
Si bien qu'il s'envint braver notre comte,
avec une armée de mille soldats ...
Il ne savait pas ce qui l'attendait.
L'épée de Gurvan est bien affilée;
Si tu l'ignorais ô roi, tu le sais.

2. Chanson du barde
 (Sung text)

Language: French (Français) 
L'océan mujit, iouh, iouh,
L'ouragan rujit, iuh, iuh,
Le corbeau chicane et ricane, coa, coa, coa, 
goap, goap, goap,
Chante, vent, et grince gronde,
Le deuil plane sur le monde, ris, courlis, coasse et crie.

Le malheur est au logis.
Au matin suivant le soleil luira
La chose cachée se dévoilera.
Au matin suivant le coq chantera
Celui qui dormait s'éveillera.
