English text
Three knights came riding out of the West,
Sir Guy, Sir Ralph, and the bold Sir Hugh;
And each was sworn to follow a quest
And noble deeds to do.
Sir Guy would harry the Paynim horde,
A dragon should fall to Sir Ralph’s good sword,
And Sir Hugh rode courting the Lady Maud.
Sing Hey! sing Ho! for eyes of blue!
From Holy Wars returned Sir Guy.
With his sword, Sir Ralph, the dragon he slew;
But never a soul again set eye upon the bold Sir Hugh!
Though a Paynim Chief with his lance has skill,
And a dragon’s claws are strong to kill,
Yet a woman’s wiles are stronger still!
Sing Hey! sing Ho! for eyes of blue!
