Crowning Of The King

Blackmore's Night

Down in the village streets

The air is full of wonder

Fair smiles greet

The crowning of the king...

Come hither, gather round

A joyous time's upon us

Trumpets sound

The crowning of the king...



Fast away the olde

Time too quickly passes

Shine the light of new

For the crowning of the king...

Come forth those who wish

For change and change becoming

Welcome with every breath

The crowning of the king...



Sweet is the hour and sweeter still

The time we spend together

Celebrate the noble will

The crowning of the king...

To sing and dance and sing again

With honor and with splendour

All from far and near -

see the crowning of the king!



Step to the dance of hope

Of courtly wiles and pleasure

As the star of morn

Shines brightly for the king...



Pray thee lift the veil

From those who came before us

Merriment will prevail

For the crowning of the king...



Sweet is the hour and sweeter still

The time we spend together

Celebrate the noble will

The crowning of the king...



To sing and dance and sing again

With honor and with splendour

All from far and near -

see the crowning of the king!

The crowning of the king!



Jesters spin and play

The laughter sounds like music

What a perfect day

For the crowning of the king...

Here in the village streets

The air is full of wonder

Fair smiles greet the crowning of the king...

Come and see the crowning of the king!
