Twa Corbiez Lyrics

Omnia Twa Corbiez

As I was walking all alone I heard two ravens cry and moan The one onto the other did say Where shall we go and dine today? Where shall we go and dine today?

Out beyond that old high dike I know there lies a murdered knight And no-one knows that he lies there But his hawk and his hound and his lady fair His hawk and his hound and his lady fair

His hound is to the hunting gone His hawk to fetch the wild bird home His lady loves another knight So we may make our dinner sweet So we may make our dinner sweet

So you may sit on his white thigh And I'll peck out his bonny blue eyes And with a lock of his golden hair We'll fix our nest when it grows bare We'll fix our nest when it grows bare

There's many a one for him does moan But none will know where he is gone And o'er his bones when they lie bare The wind will blow forever more The wind will blow forever more
