steeleye span - chanticleer lyrics
Loading...
all this night shrill chanticleer,
day’s proclaiming trumpeter
claps his wings and loudly cries,
mortals, mortals, awake and rise.
chorus (after each verse):
see a wonder heaven is under;
from the earth is risen a sun,
shines all night though day be done.
wake o earth, wake everything,
wake and hear the joy i bring;
wake and joy for all this night,
heaven and every twinkling light.
all men stare amazing
still now stand a-gazing.
angels, powers and all that be,
wake and joy this sun to see.
hail, o sun, o blessed light,
sent into the world by night.
let thy rays and heavenly powers
shine in these dark souls of ours.
