The English translation for the french song Revecy venir du printemps by Claud le Jeune?

Answer 1

This is old French and many of the words are now spelled differently or rarely used. Revecy( or Revoici) venir le printemps - is look here, the spring comes again L'amoureux et belle saison - season of love and beauty Le courant des eaux recherchant le canal d'été s'éclaircit - The stream of water searching for the summer canal, clears Et lamer calme de ces flots amolit le triste courrous and the calm waves of this flood, softens the sad daily grind Le canard s'égay' se plonjant, et se lave coint dedans l'eau The duck brightens up and dives, and washes uninhibited in the water Et la grû' qui fourche son voi, retraverse l'air et s'en va. and the crane (grue) who forks her voice, crosses the sky and flies away

Answer 3

Joyously celebratory is the mood of the song "Revecy venir du printans" ("Revoici venir du printemps," "Here again comes spring") by Claude LeJeune (1530-Buried September 30, 1630).

Specifically, the song carries the subtitle "L'amoureuz' et belle saison" ("The amorous and fair season"). It implicitly compares spring with non-green, sad winter. It speaks of the frolicking, laughing, loving, warm pleasures which people and nature find in spring's flowery fields, melted waters, and warm days.
