Traditional - Tomorrow shall be my dancing day - текст песни (слова)

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;  
Refrain: Sing, oh! my love, oh! my love, my love, my love, 
This have I done for my true love 
 
Refrain: 
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. 
Refrain: 

 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.  
Refrain: 

 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.  
Refrain: 

 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.  
Refrain: 

 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.  
Refrain: 

 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. 
Refrain: 

 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.  
Refrain: 

 9. 
 
 
 
Then 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.  
Refrain: 

 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.  
Refrain: 

 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.
