Current song lyrics
As I did travel all on a journey<br />Over the wayside and under a dark moon<br />Hanging above a mountain<br /><br />I spied a young man riding a fine horse<br />Chasing a white hart and all through the woodland<br />Head of a hunting party<br /><br />And there followed after ten kings and queens<br />Laughing and joking, the white hart they'd seen<br />Bloodied running into the bushes<br /><br />I plume to his helmet, a quiver and a bow<br />There's nowhere to run now, there's no place to go<br />The hunter is cast and ready<br /><br />Still farther I journeyed through the hills and the valleys<br />Until upon the verge of despair I sat and rested<br />And there did pass a princely knight poursuite by a lady<br />And this she did say:<br /><br />"Oh may I ask you kind sir where you are going?<br />And pray tell unto me sir why you do hurry<br />Strange that I should meet you here, come sit by me.<br /><br />"I have here a magic horn to deliver<br />And one drop from this silver and gold horn I hold, sir<br />Shall prove all to be false, lovers beware!"<br /><br />"The gift that you bear for your brother the king<br />I gladly would carry to the banquet this even'<br />What fair sport this would be for the maidens at court."<br /><br />Wearily I crossed the stream to a castle<br />Where I found shelter from the cold wintry wind<br />And food did I have and plenty<br />But the Lord and Lady seemed so sad<br />For these words they did say unto each other:<br /><br />"My good lord, all off to war in thy armor<br />Leaving me here alone to weep and to worry<br />Take care lest misadventure<br />Shall overcome thy kindly heart<br />My good lord, all off to war in thy armor."<br /><br />"My lady, you have no need for to worry<br />I'll return victorious and true unto thee<br />Take care, lest misadventure<br />Shall stain your heart and lead to woe<br />My fair lady you have no need for to worry."<br /><br />. . . la la la . . .<br /><br />While underneath the spreading oak a knight with white device<br />Upon a shield of black, and deep in grief and sorrow sings<br />His unrequited love<br /><br />"Young noblewoman riding by, pray tell me have you seen<br />Queen Azelda the fairest maid, in company she rides<br />For I swear to have revenge."<br />A thousand days have come and passed, the Lord returns this night<br />The victor from the bloody wars proven his fearsome might<br />As ever he would claim<br /><br />But fate has played its wanton game, the circle come full turn<br />The magic horn has done its work, cried "Falseness is found out!"<br />The sorrowed quest is over.
