| CHANSON DU CAVALIER | HORSEMAN’S SONG |
| | |
| Cordoue | Cordoba. |
| Lointaine et solitaire. | So distant and lonely. |
| | |
| Jument noire, lune pleine | Black little horse, and big moon, |
| Et des olives dans ma besace | and in my saddlebag olives. |
| Même en connaissant les routes | Though the ways are familiar, |
| Jamais plus je n'arriverai à Cordoue. | at Cordoba I will never arrive. |
| | |
| Dans le vent, dans la plaine | Across the plain, through the wind, |
| Jument noire, lune rousse | black little horse, and red moon. |
| La mort me regarde | Death keeps staring at me, |
| Des tours de Cordoue | down from Cordoba's towers. |
| | |
| Hai, que la route est longue ! | Oh, how the way's dragging on! |
| Hai, ma bonne jument ! | Oh, so patient my brave little horse! |
| Hai, dire que la mort m'attend | Oh, that death waits for me, |
| Avant même Cordoue ! | before Cordoba will ever be reached! |
| | |
| Cordoue | Cordoba. |
| Lointaine et solitaire. | So distant and lonely. |
