So I asked if I could sing a chanson
With a language of ancient and of lore
Gathered the men around us me and the girl in rags
Soon were the melodies heard by everyone
Hear us sing
...
Watch us dance
Sing with us this tale
Am Em*
With a clap of hands
The stories long-forgotten we still know
Performing our skills wherever we go
I end my story as I receive a kiss
From my girl the dearest Beatrice
Hear us sing
...
Watch us dance
Sing with us the tales
Am Em*
Which the music will keep alive
