A lonely bard wandering across the lands am I
Am G Am
Singing dancing finding answers to every why
C G Am
The taverns are full and one crosses my path, too
F Em7 Am
I just might reward myself with a beer or two
This inn the place of many romantic tales
On the loft women offer their sales
But my eyes they catch a girl beat by everyone
A slave she is but for me a rose undone
Припев:
Am F
Hear me sing
Am Em D# Dm
Watch me dan—ce
Dm F
Play that lute of thine
Am E
And share with me this dance
As she danced my eyes began to shine
There she was the maiden so divine
How could I approach her with my outlook so poor
Her beauty being much more than I could endure
So I asked if I could sing a chanson
With a language of ancient and of lore
Gathered the men around us me and the girl in rags
Soon were the melodies heard by everyone
Припев:
Hear us sing
Watch us dance
Sing with us this tale
With a clap of hands
The stories long-forgotten we still know
Performing our skills wherever we go
I end my story as I receive a kiss
From my girl the dearest Beatrice
Припев:
Hear us sing
Watch us dance
Sing with us the tales
Which the music will keep alive
