heather alexander - twa corbies lyrics
Loading...
as i went a-walking all alane,
i heard twa corbies makin’ mane;
the tane unto the t-ther did say-o,
“where sall we gang an’ dine the day-o?”
“in behint yon auld fail dyk-,
i wot there lies a new-slain knight;
an’ naebody kens that he lies there-o
but his hawk, an’ his hound an’ his lady fair-o”
“his hound is to the huntin gane,
his hawk tae fetch the wild fowl hame,
his lady’s ta’en anither mate-o,
so we may mak our dinner sweet-o”
“ye’ll sit on his white hause-bane,
an’ i’ll pike out his bonny blue een,
an’ wi’ a lock of his gowden hair-o
we’ll theek our nest when it grows bare-o.”
“mony a one for him maks mane,
but nane sall ken where he is gane;
ower his white bones when they are bare-o
the wind sall blow for evermair-o.”
