Paroles de Corbies

As I was walking all alane I heard twa corbies makin' mane And one ontae the other did say Where shall we gang and dine the day Where shall we gang and dine the day In behind yon oul fail dyke I wot there lies a new slain knight And naebody kens that he lies there But his hawk and his hound and his lady fair His hawk and his hound and his lady fair His hawk is tae the hunting gane His hound to fetch the wild fowl hane His lady has taken another mate So we can make our dinner sweet We can make our dinner sweet You can sit on his white breast bone And I'll pick out his bonny blue e'en And with a lock of his yellow hair We'll theek our nest when it grows bare We'll theek our nest when it grows bare And many's a one for him makes mane Naebody kens where he has gane Through his white bones when they grow bare The wind shall blow forever mare The wind shall blow forever mare
