dulcimer - morman's casket lyrics

henry morman was a norman
clever with his hands
caravaning, an old tin canning
travelling foreign lands
with his horse who was of course
obedient to rules
henry rent and henry bent
both gold and precious jewels

and he sang as he walked
and he sang like a morning bird
and he sang and he sang
sang like a morning bird

his horse and he would travel free
and wander far and close to
refusing alms, they gave their charms
to those of whom they chose to
deep in the pack on the horse’s back
a casket lay in satin
the jеwels that were sеt in the gold casket
indeed made a very fine pattern

and he sang as he walked
and he sang like a morning bird
and he sang and he sang
sang like a morning bird
silver mountain, rainbow fountain
dragon in his lair
dragon more than saw the norman
asked “what have you there?”
without cause, he stole the horse
likewise the casket pack
henry morman, a curse he swore them
the dragon, he looked not back
golden casket, do as i ask it
this then henry cried
“the first that you place within my case
some more you must provide”

the dragon, he heard wise henry’s words
a tear came to his eye
the tears then rolled into the box of gold
the dragon, he did sigh
doomed am i, yes doomed am i
this case to fill with tears
his days he spent to cry his rent
and weep away his years

and he cried and he cried
and he cried to the setting sun
and he cried and he cried
cried to the setting sun
