Testo di Hawk and Crow

Said the hawk unto the crow one day Oh, how can you in mourning stay? I was once in love but I did prove slack And ever since I wear the black I was once in love but I did prove slack And ever since I wear the black The next to speak was Willie wagtail I was once in love but I did prevail I was once in love but I did prevail And ever since I wag my tail I was once in love but I did prevail And ever since I wag my tail Then up and spoke the little brown thrush She was sitting in yon holly bush Oh, the way to love I heard them say Is to court all night and to sleep all day And the last to speak was Jenny wren Do you know what I'd do if I were a man? In case that one should wriggle and go I'd wear two strings all upon my bow
