Mediaeval Baebes - Now Springs The Spray lyrics

Now springes the spray

All for love I am so seek

That slepen I ne may

Als I me rode this endre day

O' my pleyinge

Seih I whar a litel may

Began to singe

"The clot him clinge!

Way as him I' love-longinge

Shall libben ay!"

Son I herde that mirye note

Thider I drogh I fonde hire

In an herber swot

Under a bogh

With joye enough

Son I asked, "Thou mirue may

Why singes tou ay?"

Than answerde that maiden swote

Midde wordes fewe

"My lemman me haves bihot

Of love trewe

He changes anewe

Yiif I may, it shall him rewe

By this day!"
