Alouette
Plucked bird song
Alouette is a traditional French-Canadian children's song about plucking a lark's feathers.
The title means "lark" in French.
The song is widely known in Canada and taught in French classes, with its repetitive structure making it easy to learn: We sang Alouette around the campfire.
