Traditional As I was walking all alane I heard Twa Corbies making a main And tane untae the tither did say O Where sall we gang and dine the day In behint yon auld fell dyke I wat there lies a new slain knight And naebody kens that he lies there O But his hawk and hound and his lady fair His hound is tae the hunting gane His hawk tae fetch a wild fowl hame His lady's taen another mate O So we maun make our dinner sweet Ye'll sit on his white hause bane And I'll pike out his bonny blue een Wi' many a lock of his gowden hair O We'll theek our nest when it grows bare Many a one for him makes mane But nane shall ken where he is gane O'er his white bones when they are bare O The wind shall blow forever mare The wind sall blow forever mair
