Product Description

This 18th century traditional French children's song has been arranged for a cappella 2-part chorus. English translation: By the light of the moon, my friend Pierrot, Lend me your quill to write a word. My candle is dead, I have no light left. Open your door for me for the love of God. This song is thought to have been composed in the 18th Century, but the composer is unknown. The lyrics were first published in the 1843 compilation "Chants et chansons populaires de la France." Similar to folk songs, there are many popular variations and additional verses. Similar arrangements for 3-part and 3-part mixed choirs are also available.

This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters. ArrangeMe allows for the publication of unique arrangements of both popular titles and original compositions from a wide variety of voices and backgrounds.
