If Occitan had been preserved in France, there would be more "continuity", like a corridor of intelligibility connecting Italy, France and Spain.

@nanglo2127

Ай бұрын

I get what you mean, but the original meaning of the song is not about someone finding beauty in nature, The wolf, the fox and the hare are euphemisms for the powers of Feudal Europe that would tax the commoners (the King, the knights and the Clergy). "Dancing around a tree/a foily bush" could also be seen as sex metaphors. In other dialects, you even have an extra verse going "I saw them dance with a child, Thank God it wasn't mine" Short said, the song is a metaphor about outraged peasants powerless to see all their hard-earned money seized by tax-collectors so the elite could spend it in lecherous orgies.

Probably "m'en revenant de st-hélène,ferme donc ta boite,laisse moi donc chanter,m'en revenant de st-hélène,ferme donc ta boite,laisser moi donc chanter,Trois beaux canards s'en vont baignant,touchez haut,touchez bas,touchez y touchez y pas,laisse ça maman veut pas,J'la dévire de bord pis j'y touche encore,J'ai vu le loup, le renard et le lièvre,j'ai vu le loup,le renard passer,J'ai vu le loup,le renard et le lièvre,j'ai vu le loup,le renard passer" (Yes I got carried a little bit)

Honestly I think the version that translates the "nos i fotem" part as "there is nothing left" is more interesting as it is important for the dual nature of the song. Either there is nothing left because the wolf ate the cattle, the fox ate the chickens, and the hare ate the crops or, they are metaphors for the powerful groups in medieval France. The fact that the dangerous wolf, the cunning fox and the outwardly humble hare line up well with the three Estates suggests that there is nothing left because between the aristocracy's protection rackets, the merchant's profiteering, and the clergy's tithes the common people could barely scrape by. In short, the meaning of "I saw the wolf" is that the singer has discovered that the reason there is nothing left is because parasites stole it all and are living well off their ill gotten gains. Whether the parasites are animals or humans is up to the listener to decide. Edit: I was wrong. the literal translation is "We put it all up our butts" with the idiomatic equivalent being "we pissed it away" that is to say they wasted an entire years income in one month. welp, the first person plural kind of throws everything I said out the window. what do you all make of it?

that makes sense when you consider that the Danish version translates to: in the middle of the winters cold snow I saw a wolf, a fox, a hare in the middle of the winters cold snow I saw them dance all three so a farmer starving in the winter seeing thins seems likely....

They say that animals represent the upper classes of the medieval society - wolf for king, fox for knights/nobles, hare for the church, while the dance itself represents an orgy. Basically peasants work & barely make ends meet while the upper class enjoys themselves.

@@oleksandrshymanskyi1129 Hey, that's pretty good version!

This song is so much beautiful❤❤❤

Quel banger

This sounds a lot like a mix of northern Italian dialects. I'm from Milan and some words are pretty much identical; i think i kinda hear some Venice and Piedmont too. This is so fascinating

Occitanie!!

The fox, the wolf and the rabbit seem like an alias to refer to some people the listeners would instantly know and recognize and empathize with "those who're slaving away". Who were they? What's the actual meaning behind this song?

The king, the aristocracy and the church. The singer represents the peasants who pay taxes to all of these, while they do their dance.

This isn't referring to rabbits but Hares

Thank you. Cyre

they weren't stupid they knew what was up

this song is fire

As a french speaker, i could kinda understand it!

Im a Italo-Romanian boy, i live in italy, in Piedmont, next the "Provence" of France. I undestand 90% of this Song. Here, where i lived everybody have that accent 😮

I'm from France and I understand everything !!

"Ganhar", "lebre" and "dançar" are also words in Portuguese with the same meaning.

Je suis surpris qu'ils utilisaient déjà une variante de "renard" et pas "goupil"

j'adore 😃👏👏👏👏🐺🦊

0:18 - What is this painting? It's quite beautiful.

The theme is the unending labor of the peasants and the authorities, the wolf=gendarme, the fox=the clerk, the hare=clergy, collecting taxes and tithes. There are many French tales of Reynard the Fox; a sly and conniving fellow. Reynard makes an appearance in the Italian tale of Pinocchio.
