lyrics

Wait for the moon to rise
Feel the hair upon my thighs
For though I am a girl by day
At night I turn into a doe

Mother you know what I am
I told you of my dismay
When through the woods we walked
Just the other day

Brother O famous hunter
Keep your horn to your chest
The bloodhounds that you command
Pursue me without rest

From bloody dusk till bloody dawn
They will not stop till I am fallen
Till Lady Night has taken leave
And left her pale head on the lawn

Please oh mother please
Bid my brother forgo the chase
Daylight soon will reach my eyes
And he shall recognize my face

But the horn three times sounded
On the last call our doe was caught
And her very sleek white fur
Was like cotton torn apart

Now the guests have all come
To the gay banquet hall
Mother put on your silver dress
Brother stand proud and tall

Out the window the woods are still
The moon keeps climbing higher
While the flesh and bones of a girl
Sigh upon the fire
