Il était un petit navire
"Il était un petit navire" (English: There was a little ship) is a traditional French song that is now considered a children's song, despite its macabre tone. The song tells the story of a young shipwrecked sailor who is about to be eaten by the other sailors. They discuss how to cook the man and what sauce to use. He then prays to the Virgin Mary and is saved by a miracle. This song might refer to the famous wreck of the Medusa, immortalised in the painting The Raft of the Medusa by Théodore Géricault.
