Subject: RE: Lyr Add: Mudcat singaround songs NOT in English
I think it's the first Occitan song I learned from my mom.
Los esclòps (Occitan)

1 [Quant te costèron, quant te costèron,
Quant te costèron los esclòps?] (x2)
[Quand èran, quand èran,
Quand èran nòus] (x2)

2 Cinc sòus costèron….

3 Ieu los batèri…

4 Ieu los clotèri…

5 Ieu los vernèri…

6 Fasián clic clic clic, fasián clac clac clac…

7 Ieu los trauquèri…

8 Ieu los vendèri…
…Quand èran vièlhs.
The Clogs

1 [How much did cost, how much did cost,
How much did your clogs cost?] (x2)
[When they were, when they were
When they were new] (x2)

2 Five pence they cost….

3 I strapped them…

4 I nailed them…

5 I varnished them…

6 They went clic clic clic, they went clac clac clac…

7 I pierced them…

8 I sold them…
…When they were old.
You'll find a sheet music on Mama Lisa's World page.
