Nobles seigneurs, salut! (Suzanne Johnston)

Singer: Suzanne Johnston

Urbain (Suzanne Johnston) informs the Catholic Nobles of a certain letter addressed to one Raoul di Nangis. Who is the letter from and what does it contain? Well, what would the fun be to just tell it all outright? Pursued by Nevers (John Pringle), Urbain blithely sings this charming song from a severely underrated opera.
From the Australia 1990 production.

Libretto/Lyrics/Text/Testo:

Nobles seigneurs, salut!
Seigneurs, salut!
Une dame noble et sage,
dont les rois seraient jaloux,
m'a chargé de ce message,
chevaliers, pour l'un de vous.
Sans qu'on la nomme,
honneur ici
au gentilhomme
qu'elle a choisi!
Vous pouvez croire
que nul seigneur
n'eut tant de gloire
ni de bonheur.
Ne craignez mensonge ou piège,
chevaliers, dans mes discours.
Or, salut! que Dieu protège
vos combats, vos amours!
Or, salut, chevaliers!
Dieu protège vos amours!
