Etymology
1. 1492, from O.Fr. ballade "dancing song," from O.Prov. ballada "(poem for a) dance," from L.L. ballare "to dance" (see ball (2)). Ballade, c.1386 (popularized 19c. as a type of musical composition by Frédéric Chopin), represents an earlier borrowing of the same O.Fr. word. Technically, a poem consisting of one or more triplets of seven- (later eight-) lined stanzas, each ending with the same line as the refrain, usually with an envoy.
2. From French ballade, from Old Occitan ballada (“poem for a dance”), from Late Latin ballare. Doublet of balada and ballade.
