Nouvé dai ciripicieu

D’argent à une aigle de gueules, au vol abaissé, membrée, becquée et couronnée d’or, empiétant une montagne de trois coupeaux de sable issant d’une mer d’azur mouvant de la pointe et ondée d’argent.

Nouvé dai ciripicieu ⁽¹⁾
(Christmas carol of the ciripicieu)
or Nouvé de Ciripiciciéu ⁽¹⁾
(Christmas carol of Ciripiciciéu)
Traditional Christmas carol from County of Nice.

This Christmas carol, collected by Fanny Guillon and published on 1911, is based on the “timbre” Adieu, pauvre Carnaval (Farewell, poor Carnival).

1^st verse
Èri dintre la cabana Que rounflavi coum’ un troun, E pantaiavi que tant’ Anna S’èra espeiada lou front.		I was in my hut Snoring like the thunder, Dreaming that aunt Anne Had grazed her forehead.
Chorus
Chirichipi chièu chièu chièu ... Scoute-mi, coumpaire Jacou, Chirichipi chièu chièu chièu ... Scoute-mi cenque ti dièu !		Chirichipi chièu chièu chièu ... Listen to me, my fellow James, Chirichipi chièu chièu chièu ... Listen to what I’m saying!
2^nd verse
Mi revilhi, aussi lou mourre, Senti fa gran mouvimen, Vesi que tout lou mounde courre E que s’en van vers Betelèn.		I wake up, I raise my snout, I hear making a great hullabaloo, I see everybody running, Going towards Bethlehem.
3^rd verse
Fiqui la man à la bourniera Per cercà lou miéu esquié. Mi rapèli que la fournièra L’avìa prestat à Jousé.		I put my hand in my pocket To look for my lighter. I remember that the baker’s wife Lent it to Joseph.
4^th verse
M’embraièri sensa lume, M’en anèri au pourtissòu. Quàque aiguessi miech rume, Lou frei noun mi faguèt pas mau.		I put on my pants in the dark, I went to the gate. Although I had half a touch of flu, The cold turned out no real harm.
5^th verse
Vouas que lou ti digui en doui paraula, Cen qu’es arribat en Betelèn ? Se vas trouvà maigrana Paula, Lou ti dira plus claramen.		Do you want I tell you in a few words What happens in Bethlehem? If you are going to see grandmother Paule, She will tell it to you more clearly.
6^th verse
Es naissut dins un’ estable Lou messìa Jesù Bambin, Que a visage adourable E un regard tout divin.		He is born in a cowshed The Messiah Jesus small child Who gets a sweet face And a divine gaze.
