Francion vint l'autre jour by Pierre Bonnet — Lyrics
Francion vint l'autre jour,
Me trouva toute seulette,
Lors il me parla d'amour
D'une façon si discrette
Que jamais d'affection
Je n'auray qu'à Francion.
Il me dit tout doucement,
Rebaise moy, ma mignonne;
Refuse tu ton amant,

About Francion vint l'autre jour
This French chanson, Francion vint l'autre jour, offers a delightful opportunity for a skilled SAATB choir. Pierre Bonnet sets a charming secular text that tells of a gentle romantic encounter. The narrator describes how Francion approached her with discreet words of love, leading her to declare her exclusive affection for him, playfully resisting his advances while confessing her heart belongs only to him. The music would suit a celebratory occasion or a concert program, bringing a touch of Renaissance elegance and wit to the performance. The text's lighthearted exploration of young love makes it a perfect choice for conveying playful emotion through intricate vocal lines.
