Dance With Me |
| A knight he rode his lonely way |
| Thinking about his wedding day |
| As he rode through a forest near |
| The elf king’s daughter did appear |
| Out she stepped from the elfin band |
| Smiling she held out her hand |
| Welcome Sir Knight, why such speed? |
| Come with me the dance to lead |
| Chorus |
| Dance, dance, follow me Round and round the greenwood tree |
| Dance, dance, while you may |
| Tomorrow is your dying day |
| Dance with me, dance with me Listen Sir Knight come dance with me, |
| Spurs of gold I’ll give to thee |
| Dance neither I will give nor may |
| Tomorrow is my wedding day |
| Please Sir Knight come dance with me A shirt of silk I’ll give to thee |
| A shirt of silk so white and fine |
| My mother has bleached in the moon-beams shine |
| Chorus |
| Please Sir Knight come dance with me A crown of gold I’ll give to thee |
| Your crown of gold I’ll freely take |
| But I’ll not join your elfin wake |
| Do you refuse to dance with me A plague of death shall follow thee |
| Between his shoulders a blow she dealt |
| Such a blow he’d never felt |
| Chorus |
