Le trente et un du mois d'août


{Refrain:}
Le trente et un du mois d'août
Nous vîmes venir sous l'vent vers nous,
Le trente et un du mois d'août
Nous vîmes venir sous l'vent vers nous,
Une frégate d'Angleterre
Qui fendait l'air et puis les eaux,
Voguant pour aller à Bordeaux
Le capitaine, un grand forban,
Fait appeler son lieutenant
Le capitaine, un grand forban,
Fait appeler son lieutenant :
"Lieutenant, te sens-tu capable,
Dis-moi, te sens-tu z'assez fort
Pour prendre l'Anglais à son bord ?
{au Refrain}

Le lieutenant fier z'et hardi
Lui répond : Capitaine, z'oui
Le lieutenant fier z'et hardi
Lui répond : Capitaine, z'oui
Faites branl'bas à l'équipage
Je vas z'hisser not'pavillon
Qui rest'ra haut, nous le jurons.
{au Refrain}

Le maître donne un coup d'sifflet
Pour faire monter les deux bordées
Le maître donne un coup d'sifflet
Pour faire monter les deux bordées
Tout est paré pour l'abordage
Hardis gabiers, fiers matelots
Braves canonniers, mousses, petiots.
{au Refrain}

Vire lof pour lof en bourlinguant,
Je l'abordions par son avant
Vire lof pour lof en bourlinguant,
Je l'abordions par son avant
A coup de haches d'abordage
De pique, de sabre, de mousquetons,
En trois cinq sec, je l'arrimions
{au Refrain}

Que dira-t-on du grand rafiot,
En Angleterre et à Bordeaux,
Que dira-t-on du grand rafiot,
En Angleterre et à Bordeaux,
Qu'a laissé prendre son équipage
Par un corsaire de six canons
Lui qu'en avait trente et si bons ?
{au Refrain}

Buvons un coup, buvons-en deux
A la santé des amoureux,
Buvons un coup, buvons-en deux
A la santé des amoureux,
A la santé du Roi de France
Et... pour le Roi d'Angleterre,
Qui nous a déclaré la guerre !

Biografia

Aristide Bruant (Paris, 1851 – Paris, 1905) was a French singer and chansonnier, considered one of the pioneers of Parisian cabaret. With his gravelly voice and theatrical style, Bruant captured the bohemian and decadent atmosphere of late nineteenth-century Paris. His songs, often on social or political themes, addressed poverty, prostitution, and life in popular Paris. Bruant was a controversial figure, loved by some for his authenticity and criticized by others for his daring themes. Among his most famous songs are "Le Chanson du Vieux Moulin" and "La Vie Bohème". His influence on French cabaret was profound, paving the way for artists like Édith Piaf and Jacques Brel.
