Lyrics
[Intro]
He bear her off, he bear her down
He bear her into an orchard ground
[Chorus]
Lu-li-lu-lay-lu-li-lu-lay
The falcon hath bourne my mate away
[Verse 1]
And in that orchard, there was a hold
That was hanged with purple and gold
And in that hold, there was a bed
And it was hanged with gold so red
[Chorus]
Lu-li-lu-lay-lu-li-lu-lay
The falcon hath bourne my mate away
[Verse 2]
And on this bed, there lyeth a knight
His wound is bleeding day and night
By his bedside kneeleth a maid
And she weepeth both night and day
[Chorus]
Lu-li-lu-lay-lu-li-lu-lay
The falcon hath bourne my mate away
[Outro]
By his bedside standeth a stone
Corpus christi written thereon
Written by: Benjamin Britten
