Good king wenceslas looked out[00:00:11]
On the feast of stephen[00:00:14]
When the snow lay round about[00:00:17]
Deep and crisp and even[00:00:21]
Brightly shown the moon that night[00:00:24]
Though the frost was cruel[00:00:27]
When a poor man came in sight[00:00:30]
Gathering winter fuel[00:00:33]
Hither page and stand by me[00:00:45]
If thou lost in turning[00:00:48]
Yonder peasant who is he[00:00:51]
Where and what his dwelling[00:00:54]
Sire he lives a good league hence[00:00:57]
Underneath the mountain[00:01:01]
Right against the forest fence[00:01:04]
By saint agnes fountain[00:01:07]
Bring me flesh and bring me wine[00:01:12]
Bring me pine logs hither[00:01:15]
Thou and I shall see him dine[00:01:19]
When we bear them thither[00:01:22]
Page and monarch forth they went[00:01:25]
Forth they went together[00:01:28]
Through the rude wind's wild lament[00:01:32]
And the bitter weather[00:01:35]
Sire the night is darker now[00:01:40]
And the wind blows stronger[00:01:43]
Fails my heart I know not how[00:01:46]
I can go no longer[00:01:50]
Mark my footsteps good my page[00:01:53]
Tread thou in them boldly[00:01:57]
Thou shalt find the winter's rage[00:02:00]
Freeze thy blood less coldly[00:02:03]
In his master's steps he trod[00:02:14]
Where the snow lay even[00:02:17]
Heat was in the very sod[00:02:21]
Which the saint had printed[00:02:24]
Therefore christian men be sure[00:02:27]
Wealth or rank possessing[00:02:30]
He who now will bless the poor[00:02:33]
Shall yourselves find blessing[00:02:37]
