The Singing Nun


"Dominique"

— by The Singing Nun

This song is dedicated to my mom, for all those times I had to endure this song, getting a double whammy from both the radio and the television when Debbie Reynolds starred in the movie based on the singing nun, otherwise known as Sister Luc-Gabriel, (born Jeannine Deckers).

Singing Nun Movie Dominique, nique, nique
Routier pauvre et chantant
En tous chemins en tous lieux,
II ne parle que du Bon Dieu.

A l'époque où Jean-sans-Terre
D'Angleterre était le roi,
Dominique, notre père,
Combattit les Albigeois.

Certain jour un hérétique
Par des ronces le conduit,
Mais notre père Dominique
Par sa joie le convertit.

Ni chameau ni diligence,
II parcourt l'Europe è pied,
Scandinavie ou Provence
Dans la sainte pauvreté.

Enflamma de toutes écoles
Filles et garçons pleins d'ardeur,
Et pour semer la Parole
Inventa les Frères Prêcheurs.

Chez Dominique et Ses Frères
Le pain s'en vint à manquer,
Et deux anges se présentèrent,
Portant deux grands pains dorés.

Dominique vit en rêve
Les prêcheurs du monde entier,
Sous le manteau de la Vierge
En grand nombre rassemblés.

Dominique, mon bon père,
Garde nous simples et gais
Pour annoncer à nos frères
La Vie et La Vérité.
