lirik lagu emma topping - noble sisters

‘now did you mark a falcon
sister dear, sister dear
flying toward my window
in the morning cool and clear?
with jingling bells about her neck
but what beneath her wing?
it may have been a ribbon
or it may have been a ring.’—
‘i marked a falcon swooping
at the break of day;
and for your love, my sister dove
i ‘frayed the thief away.’—

‘or did you spy a ruddy hound
sister fair and tall
went snuffing round my garden bound
or crouched by my bower wall?
with a silken leash about his neck;
but in his mouth may be
a chain of gold and silver links
or a letter writ to me.’—
‘i heard a hound, highborn sister
stood baying at the moon;
i rose and drove him from your wall
lest you should wakе too soon.’—
‘or did you meet a pretty page
sat swinging on the gatе;
sat whistling whistling like a bird
or may be slept too late;
with eaglets broidered on his cap
and eaglets on his glove?
if you had turned his pockets out
you had found some pledge of love.’—
‘i met him at this daybreak
scarce the east was red:
lest the creaking gate should anger you
i packed him home to bed.’—

‘oh patience, sister. did you see
a young man tall and strong
swift~footed to uphold the right
and to uproot the wrong
come home across the desolate sea
to woo me for his wife?
and in his heart my heart is locked
and in his life my life.’—
‘i met a nameless man, sister
hard by your chamber door:
i said: her husband loves her much
and yet she loves him more.’—
‘fie, sister, fie, a wicked lie
a lie, a wicked lie
i have none other love but him
nor will have till i die
and you have turned him from our door
and stabbed him with a lie:
i will go seek him thro’ the world
in sorrow till i die.’—
‘go seek in sorrow, sister
and find in sorrow too:
if thus you shame our father’s name
my curse go forth with you.’
