Blow, warder! blow thy sounding horn,
Blow, warder! blow thy sounding horn,
And thy bannerwave on high;
And thy bannerwave on high;
For the Christians have fought in the Holy Land,  
For the Christians have fought in the Holy Land,
and have won the victory.
and have won the victory.
Loud, loud, the warder blew his horn,
Loud, loud, the warder blew his horn,
Line 36: Line 30:
And the feast eat merrily.
And the feast eat merrily.
The warder looked from his tower on high,
The warder looked from his tower on high,
As far as he could see  
As far as he could see
I see a bold knight, and by his red cross he comes from the East country.
I see a bold knight, and by his red cross he comes from the East country.
Then loud the warder blew his horn,
Then loud the warder blew his horn,
Line 45: Line 39:
Thou'rt welcome here, dear Red Cross Knight, dear Knight,
Thou'rt welcome here, dear Red Cross Knight, dear Knight,
For thy fame's well known to me;
For thy fame's well known to me;
And the mass shall be sung  
And the mass shall be sung
And the bells shall be rung, and we'll feast right merrily, merrily,
And the bells shall be rung, and we'll feast right merrily, merrily,
And we'll feast right merrily, merrily, merrily.
And we'll feast right merrily, merrily, merrily.
Line 52: Line 46:
And we have fought in the Holy Land and we’ve won the victory,
And we have fought in the Holy Land and we’ve won the victory,
For with valiant might, did the Christians fight, and made the proud pagans fly.
For with valiant might, did the Christians fight, and made the proud pagans fly.
Thou'rt welcome here, dear Red Cross Knight, dear Knight come lay thy armour by,  
Thou'rt welcome here, dear Red Cross Knight, dear Knight come lay thy armour by,
and for the good tidings thou dost bring we'll feast us merrily, merrily, merrily,
and for the good tidings thou dost bring we'll feast us merrily, merrily, merrily,
For all in my castle shall rejoice,
For all in my castle shall rejoice,
That we've won the victory.
That we've won the victory.
And the mass shall be sung, and the bells shall be rung, and the feast, the feast eat merrily.
And the mass shall be sung, and the bells shall be rung, and the feast, the feast eat merrily.}}

Blow, warder! blow thy sounding horn,
And thy bannerwave on high;
For the Christians have fought in the Holy Land,
and have won the victory.
Loud, loud, the warder blew his horn,
And his banner waved on high;
Let the mass be sung,
And the bells be rung,
And the feast eat merrily,
Let the mass be sung,
And the bells be rung,
And the feast eat merrily.
The warder looked from his tower on high,
As far as he could see
I see a bold knight, and by his red cross he comes from the East country.
Then loud the warder blew his horn,
And called 'till he was hoarse,
I see a bold knight, and on his shield bright, he beareth a flaming cross.
Then down the Lord of the castle came, the Red Cross Knight to meet,
And when the Red Cross Knight he espied, right loving he did him greet.
Thou'rt welcome here, dear Red Cross Knight, dear Knight,
For thy fame's well known to me;
And the mass shall be sung
And the bells shall be rung, and we'll feast right merrily, merrily,
And we'll feast right merrily, merrily, merrily.
Oh! I am come from the Holy Land where saints did live and die.
Behold the device I bear on my shield, the Red Cross Knight am I,
And we have fought in the Holy Land and we’ve won the victory,
For with valiant might, did the Christians fight, and made the proud pagans fly.
Thou'rt welcome here, dear Red Cross Knight, dear Knight come lay thy armour by,
and for the good tidings thou dost bring we'll feast us merrily, merrily, merrily,
For all in my castle shall rejoice,
That we've won the victory.
And the mass shall be sung, and the bells shall be rung, and the feast, the feast eat merrily.
