ALLEN a DALE
Lyric Walter Scott, Music C. Gilfert
1812
Allen a Dale has no faggot for burning
Allen a Dale has no furrow for turning
Allen a Dale has no fleece for the spinning
yet Allen a Dale has red gold for the winning
Allen a Dale has no fleece for the spinning yet
Allen a Dale has red gold for the winning
Chorus:
Come, read me my riddle
come harken my tale
and tell me the craft of bold Allen a Dale
Come read me my riddle
come harken my tale
and tell me the craft of bold Allen a Dale
The Baron of Ravensworth prances in pride
And he views his domains upon Ark'indale side
The mere for his net and the land for his game
The chase for the wild and the park for the tame
Yes the fish of the lake and the deer of the vale
Are less free to lord Dacre than Allen a Dale
Chorus:
Allen a Dale was ne'er belted a knight
Though his spur be as sharp and his blade be as bright
Allen a Dale is no baron or lord
Yet Twenty tall yeomen will draw at his word
And the best of our nobles his bonnet will veil
who at Rerecross on Stanemore meets Allen a Dale
chorus:
Allen a Dale to his wooing is come
the mother she ask'd of his hourse and his home
Though the Castle of Richmond stands fair on the hill
My hall, quoth bold Allen shows gallenter still
'Tis the blue vault of heaven with its crescent so pale
And with all its bright spangles said Allen a Dale
Chorus:
The father was steel and the Mother was stone
They lifted the latch and they bade him be gone
But loud on the morrow, their wail and their cry
He had laughed on the lass with his bonny black eye
And she fled to the forest to hear a love tale
And the youth it was told by, was Allen a Dale
Chorus:
