For an old posting of this song here (1976), see thread Unknown, 'to me anyway' song from crusades
The text was harvested for the DT, and can be seen at THE SARACEN
Both can be found easily enough via the onsite search engine. Not added to the DT entry so far is the information, added to the discussion in 2001, that the song was written by the prolific Thomas Haynes Bayly in the first half of the 19th century.
