W:The hunt is up, the hunt is up, And it is well nigh day;
W:And Harry our king is gone hunting, To bring his deere to bay.
W:The east is bright with morning light, And darkness it is fled;
W:And the merrie horne wakes up the morne To leave his idle bed.

W:Behold the skies with golden dyes Are glowing all around;
W:The grasse is greene, and so are the treen, All laughing at the sound.
W:The horses snort to join the sport, The dogges are running free
W:The woddes rejoice at all the noise Of hey tantara tee ree!

W:Awake, all men, I say agen, be merrie as you maye,
W:For Harry our king has gone hunting, to bring his deere to bay
