lyrics

Sur son fringant coursier,
Manteau rouge casque d’acier,
Sur son fringant coursier,
Passe un fier cavalier.
De son regard altier,
Manteau rouge casque d’acier,
De son regard altier,
Il scrute le sentier.
Là sous un peuplier,
Manteau rouge casque d’acier,
Là sous un peuplier,
Entend balbutier.
« Pitié noble guerrier »,
Manteau rouge casque d’acier ,
« Pitié noble guerrier »,
Pour un pauvre routier.
« Je tremble tout entier »,
Manteau rouge casque d’acier,
« Je tremble tout entier »,
Le froid me fait crier.
Lors, le fier cavalier,
Manteau rouge casque d’acier,
Lors, le fier cavalier,
Descend de son coursier.
De son manteau princier,
Manteau rouge casque d’acier,
De son manteau princier,
Il en fait deux moitiés.
Donne l’une au routier,
Manteau rouge casque d’acier,
Donne l’une au routier,
Dieu te faut glorifier.
Enfourche son coursier,
Manteau rouge casque d’acier
Enfourche son coursier,
« Adieu pauvre routier. »
