Douglas Brooks-Davies - Adam lay ybounden - текст песни (слова)

Adam lay ybounden,
 Bounden in a bond;
 Four thousand winter
 Thought he not too long. And all was for an apple,
 An apple that he took,
 As clerkès finden 
 Written in their book. Né had the apple taken been
 The apple taken been,
 Né had never our lady
 Abeen heavené queen. Blessèd be the time
 That apple taken was.
 Therefore we moun singen
 Deo Gracias!
