《The Mummers’ Dance》歌词

[00:00:00] The Mummers' Dance (伶人之舞) - Michael Londra (麦可龙)

[00:00:40] When in the springtime of the year

[00:00:43] When the trees are crowned with leaves

[00:00:46] When the ash and oak and the birch and yew

[00:00:50] Are dressed in ribbons fair

[00:00:54] When owls call the breathless moon

[00:00:57] In the blue veil of the night

[00:01:01] The shadows of the trees appear

[00:01:04] Amidst the lantern light

[00:01:08] We've been rambling all the night

[00:01:12] And some time of this day

[00:01:15] Now returning back again

[00:01:19] We bring a garland gay

[00:01:30] Who will go down to those shady groves

[00:01:33] And summon the shadows there

[00:01:37] And tie a ribbon on those sheltering arms

[00:01:40] In the springtime of the year

[00:01:44] The songs of birds seem to fill the wood

[00:01:47] That when the fiddler plays

[00:01:51] All their voices can be heard

[00:01:55] Long past their woodland days

[00:01:58] We've been rambling all the night

[00:02:02] And some time of this day

[00:02:06] Now returning back again

[00:02:09] We bring a garland gay

[00:02:49] And so they linked their hands and danced

[00:02:52] Round in circles and in rows

[00:02:56] And so the journey of the night descends

[00:02:59] When all the shades are gone

[00:03:03] A garland gay we bring you here

[00:03:06] And at your door we stand

[00:03:10] It is a sprout well budded out

[00:03:13] The work of our Lord's hand

[00:03:17] We've been rambling all the night

[00:03:21] And some time of this day

[00:03:24] Now returning back again

[00:03:28] We bring a garland gay

[00:03:32] We've been rambling all the night

[00:03:35] And some time of this day

[00:03:39] Now returning back again

[00:03:42] We bring a garland gay
