lyrics

Musique et paroles : Samuel Meric / Trad (Para lo lop)

Para lo lop pichona para lo lop
Para lo lop que t'en porta que t'en porta,
para lo lop que t'en porta l'anhelon.

Je suis allé marcher là où je ne marche jamais,
J'ai suivi le ruisseau, j'ai voyagé dans son eau

Il m'a mené dans le sous bois,
arbustes d'épines y sont rois.

J'aperçois un feuillage verdoyant,
doucement je m'en vais demandant.

Arbre dis-moi qui es-tu,
et dans sa langue il m'a répondu

Soi le casse vert,
l'estiu coma l'hivern,
demori verd e vau morir.

Gaita a l'entorn de tu,
i a pus res mes a fer per me salvar,

Te cal venir, me veser pus sovent,
la neit e tanben quand neva.

E si james, desaparéissi,
rapela te del son de ma votz.


Français :


Prends garde au loup petite, prends garde au loup,
Prends garde au loup qui t'emporte qui t'emporte,
Prends garde au loup qui t'emporte le petit agneau.

...

Je suis le chêne vert,
l'été comme l'hiver,
je reste vert et je vais mourir.

Regarde autour de toi,
Il n'y a plus rien à faire pour me sauver.

Il faut que tu viennes, me voir plus souvent,
la nuit et aussi quand il neige.

Et si jamais je disparais,
rappelle toi du son de ma voix.


English :


Watch out the wolf little girl, watch out the wolf.
Watch out the wolf which takes away, which takes away.
Watch out the wolf which takes away the little lamb.


I went for a walk where I never walk
I followed the stream, I traveled in its water.

It led me to the undergrowth,
thorny bushes here are kings.

I can see a green foliage,
slowly I'm going to ask

Tree, tell me who you are,
and in its language it answered me


I am holm oak
During summer and during winter,
I stay green and I'm going to die.

Look around you,
There is nothing left to do to save me.

You have to come more often,
at night and also when it snows.

And if I ever disappear,
remember the sound of my voice.



Merci à Robert Catala pour la correction du texte en occitan.

about

Gofannon Toulouse, France

With a first EP "Prosodie", Gofannon immediately highlights its interest for rhythms and languages. Inspired by the traditional medieval music of the whole of Europe, its pieces naturally present a great linguistic diversity with lyrics in Occitan, English, French and Swedish. These contemplative and warm folk songs carry within them a great authenticity and a privileged relationship with Nature. ... more
