Down in Yon Forest 歌詞

Down in Yon Forest - Alfred Deller/The Deller Consort

Written by:Traditional

Down in yon forest there stands a hall

Bells of paradise I heard them ring

It's covered all over with purple and pall

And I love my Lord Jesus above anything

 

In that hall there stands a bed

The bells of paradise I heard them ring

It's covered all over with scarlet so red

And I love my lord Jesus above anything

 

And at the bed side there lies a stone

The bells of paradise I heard them ring

Where the must sweet virgin Mary has knelt upon

And I love my Lord Jesus above anything

 

Under that bed there runs a flood

The bells of paradise I heard them ring

The one half runs water the other runs blood

And I love my Lord Jesus above anything

 

At the bed's foot there grows a thorn

The bells of paradise I heard them ring

Which ever blows blossom since adam was born

And I love my Lord Jesus above anything

 

Over that bed the moon shines bright

The bells of paradise I heard them ring

Denoting our saviour was born this night

 

And I love my Lord Jesus above anything
