Lo niu d'ironda
Occitan was the language of the troubadours.
Lo niu d'ironda
The Swallow's Nest
Lullaby
Lullaby
(Occitan)
(English)
Paura pichona,
Perqué plorar?
Lo niu d'ironda
Va s'envolar.
Paura pichona,
Cal pas plorar,
Ambe l'aureta
Lo niu vendrà.
Paura pichona,
Consòla-te,
Lo niu d'ironda
Tornarà ben.
Poor little girl,
Why do you cry?
The swallow's nest
Is going to take its flight.
Poor little girl,
You must not cry,
With the Spring breeze,
The nest will come.
Poor little girl,
Take comfort,
The swallow's nest
Surely will come back.
