Sing Oak, and Ash, and Thorn good sirs, All on a midsummer's morn. Surely we sing of no little thing In Oak, and Ash, and Thorn. Oak of the clay lived many a day o'er ever Aeneas began Ash of the loam was a lady at home when Brut was an outlaw man, And Thorn of the down saw new Troy town, from which was London born Witness hereby the ancient try of Oak, and Ash, and Thorn. Sing . . . Yew that is old, in churchyard mould, he breedeth a mighty bow Alder for shoes do wise men choose, and Beech for cups also But when you have killed, and you bowl it is filled, and your shoes are clean outworn Back you must speed for all that you need to Oak, and Ash, and Thorn Sing . . . Elm, she hates mankind, and waits till every gust be laid, To drop a limb on the head of him that anyway trusts her shade, But whether a lad be sober or sad, or mellow with ale from the horn, He'll taketh no wrong when he lyeth along 'neath Oak, and Ash, and Thorn Sing . . . Oh, do not tell the priest our plight, or he would call it a sin, But we've been out in the woods all night, a-conjuring summer in, And we bring you good news by word of mouth, good news for cattle and corn Now is the sun come up from the south, by Oak, and Ash, and Thorn. Sing . . . ----------------------------------------------------------------- Recorded by John Roberts and Tony Barrand on Dark Ships in the Forest, Folk Legacy FSI65 Rudyard Kipling's "A Tree Song" sets the scene for the stories and poems of "Puck of Pook's Hill." This setting of the verses is by Peter Bellamy of Norwich, who, since the breakup of the Young Tradition, has become one of Britain's best known exponents of traditional song. He has arranged a considerable number of Kipling's "songs," using original melodies or adapting traditional ones. This tune is his own. @magic @seasonal @tree @plant filename[ OAKASHTH play.exe OAKASHTH DC ===DOCUMENT BOUNDARY Related Lyrics Random lyrics: Oh Con All The Faithful, Oh Freedom, Oh Genevieve, Oh Holy Night, Oh How He Lied, Oh Little Town Of Bethlehem, Oh Lovely Appearance Of Death, Oh Mistress Mine, Oh My Liver And My Lungs, Oh No John, Oh Oh Oh Its A Lovely War, Oh Susanna, Oh That Low Bridge, Oh What A Face, Oh What A Merry Land Is England, Old And Only In The Way, Old Avram Brown Round, Old Bangum, Old Beer Bottle, Old Blue, Old Blue Suit, Old Chizzum Chisholm Trail, Old Dun Cow, Old Family Toothbrush, Old Fiddler And His Cow, Old Folks At Home, Old German Clockwinder, Old Huac, Old Jack Frost, Old Judge Duffy, Old Kentucky Home, Old Maid, Old Maid In The Garret, Old Maid Song, Old Moke Pickin On The Banjo, Old Molly Hare Old Mother Hare, Old Mother Shipton, Old Oaken Bucket, Old Pubs, Old Rose And Crown, Old Settlers Song, Old Shawnee, Old Shecrab, Old Shoes And Leggins, Old Soldiers Never Die, Old Southern Town, Old Spinning Wheel, Old Time Religion, Old Woolie, Old Zeb, Other Unknown song Lyrics 99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall Lyrics A Bird in a Gilded Cage Lyrics A Fenian Song Lyrics A Fool Such As I Lyrics A Friend Like You Lyrics A Hero of the Wrong War Lyrics A Horse Named Bill Lyrics A Hundred Years from Now Lyrics A Kangaroo Sat on an Oak Lyrics A Little Bit of Solitude Lyrics A Living Wage Lyrics ...Show All Other Artists Unknown Prophets Lyrics Unleashed Lyrics Unleashed Power Lyrics Unlimited Nation Lyrics Unlimited Sound Lyrics UNLOCO Lyrics Unlord Lyrics UNLV Lyrics Unni Wilhelmsen Lyrics Uno Svenningsson Lyrics All lyrics are property and copyright of their owners and are strictly for educational purposes only. lyricstrue.net Copyright © 2005-2007 All Rights Reserved., , Privacy policy
