about

John Harle’s The Three Ravens was used on Schama’s ‘History of Britain’. I had never heard anything so beautiful. In a moment of delusion I have attempted to recreate it with a 1970’s Japanese Zenta guitar, a psaltery that is likely a 1970’s school woodwork project and a toy xylophone. My success or failure I leave to your judgement.

lyrics

There were three ravens sat on a tree, they were as black as they might be,
One of them said to his mate where shall we now our breakfast take.

Down in yonder deep green fields, there lies a knight slain under his shield
His hounds they lie down at his feet, so well do they their master keep,

His hawks they fly so eagerly, no fowl dare to come him near,
Down there comes a fallow doe as great with young as she might go

She's lifted up his bloody head, she's licked the wounds that are so red,
She's got him up upon his back and carried him to Earthen lake,

He was dead before the prime, oh derry, she was dead herself ere evensong time, god send every gentlemen such hawks, such hounds and such a lover.
