he bear her into an orchard ground

lu li lu lay lu li lu lay
the falcon hath bourne my mate away

and in this orchard there was a hold
that was hanged with purple and gold
and in that hold there was a bed
and it was hanged with gold so red

lu li lu lay lu li lu lay

on this bed there lyeth a knight
his wound is bleeding both day and night
by his bedside kneeleth a maid
and she weepeth both night and day

lu li lu lay lu li lu lay

by his bedside standeth a stone
corpus christi written thereon
