This tune is really great !! It's one of my favorite in the celtic
area.
We play it with my folk band.
You can find a cover of it by the famous breton band Tri Yann.
They called it "Kerfank 1870". I can't swear it, but I think the
rythm is an "An Dro".
The lyrics they use is
"Général, ma Général d'ar ger,
D'ar ger ma Général,
D'ar ger n'eo ket d'ar brezel,
Général, ma Général d'ar ger,
D'ar ger ma Général,
Ma Kaer de Marivault.
En habit et jabyot doré,
Tu nous vois d'en haut,
Vive la Prusse et la France;
Le cul nu, tout dépenaillés,
On te voit d'en bas,
A bas Guillaume et Chanzy. /.../"
