Reynardine - arr. Hughes |
One evening as I rambled |
Among the leaves so green |
I overheard a young woman |
Converse with Reynardine |
Her hair was black, her eyes were blue |
Her lips as red as wine |
And he smiled to gaze upon her |
Did that sly old Reynardine |
She said, «Kind sir, be civil |
My company forsake |
For in my own opinion |
I fear you are some rake» |
«Oh no,» he said, «no rake am I |
Brought up in Venus' train |
But I’m seeking for concealment |
All along the lonesome plain» |
«Your beauty so enticed me |
I could not pass it by |
So it’s with my gun I’ll guard you |
All on the mountains high» |
«And if by chance you should look for me |
Perhaps you’ll not me find |
For I’ll be in my castle |
Inquire for Reynardine» |
Sun and dark, she followed him |
His teeth did brightly shine |
And he led her up a-the mountains |
Did that sly old Reynardine |
