Lyke-wake Dirge Lyrics
This ae nighte, this ae nighte
Every nighte and alle
Fire and fleet and candle-lighte
And Christe receive thy saule
When thou from hence away art past
Every nighte and alle
To Whinny-muir thou com'st at last;
And Christe receive thy saule
If ever thou gavest hosen and shoon
Every nighte and alle
Sit thee down and put them on;
And Christe receive thy saule
If hosen and shoon thou ne'er gav'st nane
Every nighte and alle
The whinnes sall prick thee to the bare bane;
And Christe receive thy saule
From Whinny-muir when thou may'st pass
Every nighte and alle
To Brig o' Dread thou com'st at last;
And Christe receive thy saule
From Brig o' Dread when thou may'st pass
Every nighte and alle
To Purgatory fire thou com'st at last;
And Christe receive thy saule
If ever thou gavest meat or drink
Every nighte and alle
The fire sall never make thee shrink;
And Christe receive thy saule
If meat or drink thou ne'er gav'st nane

Every nighte and alle
The fire will burn thee to the bare bane;
And Christe receive thy saule
This ae nighte, this ae nighte
Every nighte and alle
Fire and fleet and candle-lighte
And Christe receive thy saule
