Song | Childe The Hunter |

作词 : LAKEMAN, SETH BERNARD | |
Come and listen, brave and tall, | |
The greatest tale I have to tell you, | |
It was a bleak and barren moor. | |
In ancient days he fell. | |
There rode a man of high renown | |
His name it came as hunter Childe. | |
Every day he chased heath and waste | |
On a moor so black and wild. | |
The wind blew in and that hunter | |
Fell upon a bed of snow. | |
The night drew in and that thunder | |
Stuck him in a steady hole. | |
He looked up high and he begged her | |
"Let me see my lover home"., | |
The moon called out to the hunter | |
"Come into the shadows". | |
He drew a knife from off his back, | |
Upon the ground his horse was lying. | |
He cut a measure, just full size | |
To rest there for the night. | |
With his finger dipped in blood | |
He scrabbled words along the stones, | |
"Upon my will, God fulfill, | |
Rest these heavy bones". | |
The wind blew in and that hunter | |
Fell upon a bed of snow. | |
The night drew in and that thunder | |
Stuck him in a steady hole. | |
He looked up high and he begged her | |
"Let me see my lover home"., | |
The moon called out to the hunter | |
"Come into the shadows". | |
Take a warning when you're in the wild, | |
Against the skyline, off the high road. | |
For the memory of hunter Childe | |
Should rest you on your way. | |
He was a man of high renown, | |
His name it came, then blew away. | |
Upon his will the moon to steal, | |
In the shadows he will lay. | |
The wind blew in and that hunter | |
Fell upon a bed of snow. | |
The night drew in and that thunder | |
Stuck him in a steady hole. | |
He looked up high and he begged her | |
"Let me see my lover home"., | |
The moon called out to the hunter | |
"Come into the shadows" |
