Thanks to Chip & Masato for rescuing me so quickly on my last request- I fear this one might be tougher. The lyrics to Midwinter's Night, (Blackmore's Night,) are simple to come by, but they didn't post the foreign language verse. It took me a year just to get Candice to tell me what language they were in. (Provencial French. I had guessed Breton, so I get half a gold star...*L*)

Never the less, she still hasn't posted that verse, and I was so caught up in figuring out the language that I forgot to ask if the song was just a transliteration of a traditional song, or original, or a mix of the two.

Anyway, if anyone knows of a Provencial French folk song which could even be close, I'd appreciate the lyrics... (The free translators just don't *do* archaic tongues, dangit!)

The lyrics I *do* have:

"The bells are ringing
On Mid Winters Night
The moon sets all alone
And once again I try to sleep before the morning light

Too soon the sun will come a-calling
over the hills in our little town
Too soon the snow will start falling
over the world without a sound
While in my room dreams are a-fleeting
I close my eyes one more time
All too quickly the dawn is breaking and I must leave the night behind."
