¶Liedtext

:::''1.'' Tomorrow shall be my dancing day; I would my true love did so chance To see the legend of my play, To call my true love to my dance; ''Chorus: :''Sing, oh! my love, oh! my love, my love, my love, :''This have I done for my true love :::''2.'' Then was I born of a virgin pure, Of her I took fleshly substance Thus was I knit to man's nature To call my true love to my dance. Chorus. :::''3.'' In a manger laid, and wrapped I was So very poor, this was my chance Betwixt an ox and a silly poor ass To call my true love to my dance. Chorus. :::''4.'' Then afterwards baptized I was; The Holy Ghost on me did glance, My Father’s voice heard from above, To call my true love to my dance. Chorus. :::''5.'' Into the desert I was led, Where I fasted without substance; The Devil bade me make stones my bread, To have me break my true love's dance. Chorus. :::''6.'' The Jews on me they made great suit, And with me made great variance, Because they loved darkness rather than light, To call my true love to my dance. Chorus. :::''7.'' For thirty pence Judas me sold, His covetousness for to advance: Mark whom I kiss, the same do hold! The same is he shall lead the dance. Chorus. :::''8.'' Before Pilate the Jews me brought, Where Barabbas had deliverance; They scourged me and set me at nought, Judged me to die to lead the dance. Chorus. :::''9.'' When on the cross hanged I was, Where a spear my heart did glance; There issued forth both water and blood, To call my true love to my dance. Chorus. :::''10.'' Then down to hell I took my way For my true love's deliverance, And rose again on the third day, Up to my true love and the dance. Chorus. :::''11.'' Then up to heaven I did ascend, Where now I dwell in sure substance On the right hand of God, that man May come unto the general dance. Chorus. '''Old Cornish poem from Sandys' Collection'''
