No one goes there nowA
For what is left to fetch awayB
From the desolate battlements all arowC
And the lead roof heavy and greyC
Therefore said fair Yoland of the flowersD
This is the tune of Seven TowersD
-
No one walks there nowA
Except in the white moonlightE
The white ghosts walk in a rowC
If one could see it an awful sightE
Listen said fair Yoland of the flowersD
This is the tune of Seven TowersD
-
But none can see them nowA
Though they sit by the side of the moatF
Feet half in the water there in a rowC
Long hair in the wind afloatF
Therefore said fair Yoland of the flowersD
This is the tune of Seven TowersD
-
If any will go to it nowA
He must go to it all aloneG
Its gates will not open to any rowC
Of glittering spears will you go aloneG
Listen said fair Yoland of the flowersD
This is the tune of Seven TowersD
-
By my love go there nowA
To fetch me my coif awayC
My coif and my kirtle with pearls arowC
Oliver go to dayC
Therefore said fair Yoland of the flowersD
This is the tune of Seven TowersD
-
I am unhappy nowA
I cannot tell you whyH
If you go the priests and I in a rowC
Will pray that you may not dieH
Listen said fair Yoland of the flowersD
This is the tune of Seven TowersD
-
If you will go for me nowA
I will kiss your mouth at lastI
She sayeth inwardlyJ
The graves stand grey in a rowC
Oliver hold me fastI
Therefore said fair Yoland of the flowersD
This is the tune of Seven TowersD
