The Chanson de l'Oignon ("Song of the Onion") is a French marching song from around 1800.
According to legend, it originated among the grenadiers of Napoleon's Imperial Guard. Before the Battle of Marengo, Napoleon found some grenadiers rubbing an onion on their bread. "Very good," he said, "there is nothing better than an onion for marching on the road to glory.
FRANÇAIS :
La Chanson de l'oignon est un chant militaire anonyme français de la Révolution et du Premier Empire. C'était un des airs favoris des grenadiers de la Garde Impériale.
La légende veut que le chant soit né peu avant la bataille de Marengo, le 14 juin 1800. Napoléon aperçoit des grenadiers qui frottent vigoureusement une croûte de pain. « - Que diable frottez-vous donc sur votre pain? leur demanda-t-il. - C'est de l'oignon, mon général. - Ah ! Très bien, il n'y a rien de meilleur pour marcher d'un bon pas sur le chemin de la gloire ».
La Légion étrangère le conserve à son répertoire. - Hudba
On this day 200 years ago, Napoleon died in exile in St. Helena. Whether you are a Royalist, a Bonapartist, or a republican, we can all agree that Napoleon was truly one of the greatest military leaders of all time. Vive l'Empereur!
FR : Aujourd'hui, 200 ans passés, Napoléon est mort en exil sur l'île de Sainte-Hélène. Que tu sois royaliste, Bonapartiste, ou républicain, nous pouvons tous être d'accord que Napoléon fut certainement un des plus grands chefs militaires de tous les temps. Vive l'Empereur!

"Pienet sammakot, pienet sammakot, ne lystikkäitä on" This melody is used in a childrens' song in Sweden and Finland telling about little frogs. The lyrics translates roughly as "Little frogs, little frogs, they're funny to observe". How a Napoleonic French military march became a childrens' song in Scandinavia is a mystery lost somewhere in history.
Maybe a mockery, the english call us froggies
Well not sure if you know or not but one of Napoleon’s Marshals took the Swedish throne (by way of invitation) & his ancestors (under the name ‘Johan’) remain on the throne of Sweden today.
Possibly the answer?

My four time Great Grandfather fought in the Grande Armee. He was 20 when he survived the Russian invasion and he fought at the Battles of Leipzig and Waterloo. He was captured by the Prussians so I think he was a part of Grouchy's 30,000 sent to persue them. He spent six months at a POW camp at Danzig. He was an ethnic German from Alsace-Lorraine so I bet he was a translator between the German speaking Prussians and his French speaking comrades. If I ever have a son, his middle name will be Nikolaus in his honour.

@PowerZgamer It's actually La France.
Before the Battle of Marengo in 1800, the grenadiers took care of spreading onions on their bread. Bonaparte approaches the men:
- "What the hell are you rubbing on your bread?" He asked them.
- "It's onion, general!" One of them exclaimed.
- "Ah! Very well, there is nothing better to walk briskly on the path to glory", replied the general vigorously.
A little after... *"J'aime l'Oignon, frit à l'huile, J'aime l'Oignon quand il est bon ! (...) Au pas Camarade, Au pas Camarade ! (...)"*
Here is the origin of the song. The Foreign Legion also keeps it in its repertoire.
