A cry from the birds marks the dawning of the day The huntsman moves with cat like grace searching for his prey Finding the trail of a beast he means to claim The hunting party fall behind and follow in his way They hear not a sound save the whisper of the breeze As Herne moves silent as a ghost stalking through the trees Soon closing in on a proud and noble stag Signaling his king to chase and join in the attack Cornered and desperate the stag turns to fight Between king and quarry Herne gives his life As the party tends to him A stranger moves towards the king Ancient wizard of the wood Before the monarch now is stood Boundless knowledge sylvan sage The wisdom from a bygone age I can help him cheat this death This need not be his final breath You must follow what I say Cut the antlers from your prey Fix them to the hunter's brow And he will not die here and now With the antlers fixed to his forehead Herne resists death's cold embrace Taking on a new found vigour, light of foot and quick of pace Grateful is the king his master for Hernes noble sacrifice He receives a royal blessing favored in his monarchs eyes Hunting in the Windsor woodlands he's the master of this domain The other hunters envious as his favor grows and theirs does wain Putting pressure on the king they move to have poor Herne dismissed Herne released from royal service shame replacing pride and bliss Despair depression take their hold the mighty oak becomes his gallows pole
