Three Ravens

Three Ravens - Libera (天使之翼合唱團)

There were three ravens sat on a tree

Down a down hey down a down

They were as black as they might be

With a down down down

Then one of them said to his mate

Where shall we now our breakfast take

With a down derry derry down down

Down in yonder deep green field

Down a down hey down a down

There lies a knight slain under his shield

With a down down down

His hounds they lie down at his feet

So well do they their masters keep

With a down derry derry down down

His hawks they fly so eagerly

Down a down hey down a down

There's no fowl that dare him come nigh

With a down down down

Down there comes a fallow doe

As great with young as she might go

With a down derry derry down down

She lifted up his bloody head

Down a down hey down a down

And kissed his wounds that were so red

With a down down down

She got him up upon her back

And carried him to earthern lake

With a down derry derry down down

She buried him before the prime a derry

She was dead herself ere evensong time

God send every gentle man such hawks such hounds

And such a loved one
