lyrics

Je suis poisson, je suis oiseau,
Je vole en l’air je nage dans l’eau,
En l’un & l’autre ma vie,
Misérablement poursuivie,

Fuit & re-fuit son ennemi,
Qui n’a jamais l’oeil endormi;
Sans cesse tachant de me prendre,
Moi qui n’ai de quoi me défendre

En l’un & en l’autre élément
Doublant ma fuite & mon tourment;
Je suis poisson, je suis oiseau

Pourquoi m’as tu cruel Neptune
Fait naitre en telle fortune?
Et pourquoi Ciel as tu produit
L’Aigle carnassier qui me suit

Quand je fuis la dent larronnesse
Du brigand marin qui me presse,
Pourquoi? Sinon pour enseigner
L’homme, qu’il ne faut dédaigner

La condition la plus dure
Qui se trouve dans la nature;
Mais paisiblement supporter
Le mal qu’on ne peut éviter

Sans qu’on vienne jamais a dire
Un mot d’impatience, ou d’ire;
Ainsi que moi pauvre Poisson
Me taisant lui en fait la leçon.

Pourquoi m’as tu cruel Neptune
Fait naitre en telle fortune?
Et pourquoi Ciel as tu produit
L’Aigle carnassier qui me suit

about

Cory Seznec image

Cory Seznec Paris, France

Somewhere between musical wanderer and uncertified ethnomusicologist dwells the artist Cory Seznec and his unique world.
A French-American in Paris, Seznec’s fingerstyle guitar-playing is syncopated, polyrhythmic, cross-pollinated, and idiosyncratic. He also sings, plays old-time banjo, and wades in the deep river of American song.
