It´s springtime and close to june Forest and country are fresh and green For duke and mistress-ready for hunt Await for the trek of the duke The call of wild of redeer and of swine It entice the lord to stay here It entice the baliffs daughter too A girl-just a gracious wife He starts to loving her-after all the time However rich a man may be He has eyes but still can`t see What there is to come tomorrow And what the future holds for him All his money will not be A guide through life for him From all parts of his land-peasants arriveed To bait the wild for their duke They hunt with spears with arrows and with dogs Each lord of the duke`s land- they let it know The duke calls up-for coming on However rich a man may be He has eyes but still can`t see What there is to come tomorrow And what the future holds for him All his money will not be A guide through life for him
