King Henry

(Trad. lyrics, adapted by Kerry Andrew)

Let never a man a wooing wend

That lacks these things three:

A purse of gold, an open heart

And full of courtesy.

King Henry’s in his hunting hall

Making hearty cheer

When loud the wind began to howl

And an earthquake rocked the floor.

And darkness covered all the hall

And open burst the door

And in there came a dreadful ghost

Stood stamping on the floor.

Their head hit the roof-tree of the house

Their middle you could not span

Each frightened huntsman fled the hall

And left the king alone.

Their teeth were like great gravestones

The rain it from them fell

He’s thrown over his royal cloak

Saying, ‘come, and warm yourself.’

‘Some meat, King Henry

Some meat you’ll give to me.’

‘All the meat that’s in this house

I will give to thee.’

‘O you will kill your berry-brown mare

and serve her up to me.’

When he slew his berry-brown mare

O his heart was sore

They ate her up, all skin and bone

Left nothing but hide and hair.

‘More meat, more meat, King Henry

More meat you’ll give to me.’

‘All the meat that’s in this house

I will give to thee.’

‘O you will kill your good greyhounds

and serve them up to me.’

When he slew his good greyhounds

O his heart was sore

They ate them up, bone by bone,

Left nothing but hide and hair.

‘More meat, more meat, King Henry

More meat you’ll give to me.’

‘All the meat that’s in this house

I will give to thee.’

‘O you will kill your good goshawk

And serve her up to me.’

When he slew his good goshawk

O his heart was sore

They ate her up, bone by bone

Left nothing but feathers bare.

‘Some drink, some drink, King Henry

Some drink you’ll give to me.’

‘All the drink’s that’s in this house

I will give to thee.’

‘O you will sew your dead mare’s hide

And pour a drink for me.’

And he’s sewed up the bloody hide

Poured in a draft of wine

They drank it up all in one gulp

Left not a drop within.

‘A bed, a bed, King Henry,

A bed you’ll make for me.’

‘Any bed that’s in this house

You are welcome to.’

‘Your bed, your bed, King Henry

O I’ll sleep in your bed.’

He’s taken them to his own chamber

And his cloak over them spread

'Now come and take off all your clothes

And have me by your side.'

‘God forbid,’said King Henry

‘That ever the like betied.

That ever a wraith that dwells in hell

Should stretch out by my side.’

But he saw the hurt in their deathly face

the sadness in their eye

and so he took off all his clothes

and lay down by their side.

When day was come and night was gone

And the sun shone through the hall

The fairest soul that ever was seen

Lay between him and the wall.

‘O my heart!’King Henry said

How long will you last with me?’

And out and spoke that fair knight

‘Even til the day you die.’
