Chansons de Don Quichotte

Song Cycle by Jacques François Antoine Ibert (1890-1962)

English translation: Songs of Don Quixote

1. Chanson du départ de Don Quichotte

Language: French

Authorship

Available translations (or transliterations, if applicable): 


 Ce château neuf, ce nouvel édifice
 Tout enrichi de marbre et de porphyre
 Qu'amour bâtit château de son empire
 où tout le ciel a mis son artifice,
 Est un rempart, un fort contre le vice,
 Où la vertueuse maîtresse se retire,
 Que l'oeil regarde et que l'esprit admire
 Forçant les coeurs à lui faire service.

 C'est un château, fait de telle sorte
 Que nul ne peut approcher de la porte
 Si des grands rois il n'a sauvé sa race
 Victorieux, vaillant et amoureux.
 Nul chevalier tant soit aventureux
 Sans être tel ne peut gagner la place.
Input by Auditorium du Louvre
