aubade: /oh-bahd/

A song or poem greeting the dawn; also, a composition suggestive of morning.

how to use in casual conversation:

"after all the beer we drank last night, it was hard to avoid turning my usual aubade into a 'fuck-you' song"

not to be confused with:

auberge

how it makes me feel:

it's a pretty solid WOTD. it's sorta got the french thing going on, but that's really a personal problem of mine and not something any of you should worry about. it has a pretty specific definition - it isn't just a fancy word for a song or poem, but one specifically to greet the dawn. while this does conjure images of some douchebag standing on a bluff reciting his aubade, (sorry for the gender specific language, i don't know why i went that way) for some reason that doesn't bother me.
