As I was walking all alone
I heard two ravens cry and moan;
One said to the other did say o
“Where shall we go and dine today o?”
“Up behind that old high dyke
I know there lies a murdered knight;
And no one knows that he lies there o
But his hawk, and his hound, and his lady fair o.”
“His hound is to the hunting gone
His hawk to bring the wild-fowl home
His lady loves another Knight o
So we may make our meal tonight o.”
“You will sit on his white thigh
And I’ll peck out his bonny blue eye;
And with a lock of his golden hair o
We’ll fix our nest when it grows bare o.”
“Many a one for him doеs moan
But no one knows where hе is gone;
O’r his bones, where they are bare o
The wind will blow for evermore o.”
