Reynard The Fox 歌詞

Reynard The Fox - Fairport Convention

Ye gentlemen of high renown

Come listen unto me

 

That takes delight in fox

Hunting by every degree

 

A story i will tell to you

Concerning of a fox

 

Near royston woods and mountains

High and over stony rocks

Bold reynard being in his hole

And hearing of these hounds

 

Which made him for to prick up his

Ears and tread upon the ground

 

Methinks me hears some jubal

Hounds a-pressing upon the life

 

Before that they should come to me

I'll tread upon the ground

 

We hunted for four hours or more

Through parishes sixteen

 

We hunted for four hours or more

And came by parkworth green

 

Oh if you'll only spare my life

I promise and fulfil

 

To touch no more your feathered fowl

Or lambs on yonder hill

 

Bold reynard spent and out of breath

And treading on this ground

 

Thinking he must give up his life

Before these jubal hounds

 

So here's adieu to ducks and geese

Likewise to lambs also

 

They've got poor reynard by the slabs

 

And will not let them go
