alan cumming - anonymous - the twa corbies - ballad lyrics

Loading...

as i was walking all alane
i heard twa corbies making a mane;
the tane unto the t’other say
‘where sall we gang and dine the day?’

‘in behind yon auld fail dyk+
i wot there lies a new slain knight;
and naebody kens that he lies there
but his hawk, his hound, and his lady fair

‘his hound is to the hunting gane
his hawk to fetch the wild+fowl hame
his lady’s ta’en another mate
so we may make our dinner sweet

‘ye’ll sit on his white hause+bane
and i’ll pike out his bonny blue een;
wi ae lock o his gowden hair
we’ll theek our nest when it grows bare

‘mony an ane for him makes mane
but nane sall ken whare he is gane;
oer his white banes, when they are bare
the wind sall blaw for evermair.’
