lyrics

The hern flew east the hern flew west
Lully-lullay, lully-lullay
She bore her o'er the fair forest
The falcon hath born my mak away

She bore her o'er the meadows green
Lully-lullay, lully-lullay
All to espy what might be seen
The falcon hath born my mak away

Oh, then she saw an orchard fair
Lully-lullay, lully-lullay
Where grow'th the apple and the pear
The falcon hath born my mak away

And in that orchard stands a hall
Lully-lullay, lully-lullay
Was clad all o'er with purple and pall
The falcon hath born my mak away

And in that hall there stands a bower
Lully-lullay, lully-lullay
Was covered o'er with periwink flower
The falcon hath born my mak away

Beneath that bower there stands a bed
Lully-lullay, lully-lullay
With silken sheets of gold so red
The falcon hath born my mak away

And in that bed that lies a knight
Lully-lullay, lully-lullay
Whose wounds doth bleed both day and night
The falcon hath born my mak away

Under that bed there runs a flood
Lully-lullay, lully-lullay
One half runs water, the other runs blood
The falcon hath born my mak away

By the bed side there stands a stone
Lully-lullay, lully-lullay
A leal maiden was sat thereon
The falcon hath born my mak away

With silver needle and silken thread
Lully-lullay, lully-lullay
She stems the wounds where they doth bleed
The falcon hath born my mak away
