TWA Corbies |
As I was walking all alone |
I spied twa corbies making a mane |
And one to the other did say-o: |
«Where shall we go and dine the-day? |
Where shall we go and dine the-day?» |
«Oh behind that fail black dyke |
There lies a body of a fresh-slain knight |
And nobody knows that he lies there |
But his hawk and his hound and his lady fair |
But his hawk and his hound and his lady fair» |
«The hawk is to the hunting gone |
The hound to fetch the wild-fowl home |
His lady’s lying with another |
So we can make our dinner sweet |
Oh we can make our dinner sweet» |
«And you’ll sit on his white hause-bone |
And I’ll peck out his bonny blue eyes |
And with the lock of his golden hair |
We’ll mend our nest where it grows bare |
We’ll mend our nest where it grows bare» |
«And many a one is making mane |
But nobody know where he has gone |
And through his bones, when they are bare |
The wind will blow for evermore |
The wind will blow for evermore |
The wind will blow for evermore |
The wind will blow for evermore» |
