THE CANDLEFORD ANTHEM

Come fill up your glasses and let us be merry,
For to rob and to plunder it is our intent,
As we roam through the valleys,
Where the lilies and roses,
And the beauty of kashmir lay drooping its head,
Then away, then away, then away,
To the caves in yonder mountains,
Where the robbers retreat.

Hush Hush in the distance we hear footsteps approaching,
Stand stand and deliver it is our watch cry,
As we roam through the valleys,
Where the lilies and roses,
And the beauty of kashmir lay drooping its head,
Then away, then away, then away,
To the caves in yonder mountains,
Where the robbers retreat.
