French Baroque Song: Mort et convoi de l’invincible Malbrough (1709) / Le Poème Harmonique
FRENCH BAROQUE SONG [XVIII Century]
MORT ET CONVOI DE L’INVINCIBLE MALBROUGH
(after the Battle of Malplaquet - 1709)
also know as MARLBROUGH S’EN VA-T-EN GUERRE
note: is one of the most popular folk songs in the French language. This burlesque lament on the death of John Churchill, 1st Duke of Marlborough (1650--1722) was written on a false rumour of that event after the Battle of Malplaquet in 1709. It tells how Marlborough’s wife, awaiting his return from battle, is given the news of her husband’s death. The melody probably predates the song’s lyrics, and it is the same tune used by two other songs, “For He’s a Jolly Good Fellow“ and “The Bear Went Over the Mountain.“

Marlbrough s’en va-t-en guerre,
Ne sait quand reviendra.
Il reviendra-z-à Pâques,
mironton, mironton, mirontaine,
Il reviend
