Lyrics Yonder Lea - Mediaeval Baebes

Yonder Lea

o wert thou in the cauld blast
on yonder lea on yonder lea
o wert thou in the cauld blast
way down on yonder lea
or did misfortune’s bitter storms
around thee blaw around thee blaw
or did misfortune’s bitter storms
around thee all would blaw
or were i in the wildest waste
sae black and bare sae black and bare
or were i in the wildest waste
where all was black and bare
the desert were a paradise
if thou wert there if thou wert there
the desert were a paradise
if thou wert ever there
my plaidie to the angry airt
i’d shelter thee i’d shelter thee
my plaidie to the angry airt
and i would shelter thee
the brightest jewel in my crown
wad be my queen wad be my queen
the brightest jewel in my crown
my queen would ever be
