Passing Thus Alone Lyrics - Mediaeval Baebes

Passing thus alone, through the silent forest 

Many a grievous groan sounded in her ear 

Where she heard a man to lament the sorest 

Chance that ever came, forc'd by deadly strife 

Farewell, me dear, quoth he 

Whom I shall never see 

For why my life is at an end for thy sweet sake I die 

Through villains cruelty to show I am a faithful friend 

Here lie I a bleeding while my thoughts are feeding 

On the rarest beauty found, oh hard hap that may be 

Little knows my lady 

My heart blood lies on the ground
