Summary

The International Conference of Basquologists, held in Gernika in August 1980, marks the beginning of my productive philological and musical relationship with José Antonio Arana. In these pages I reflect on the melodies that accompany some considerably varied lyrics, like that of the Oi Betleem Christmas carol, documented at least since 1736 with the fable La Fourmi et la Sauterelle. To conclude, I include a composition of mine with the text of an aphorism dating back to 1596 that is dedicated to José Antonio Arana.
