The Stag (牡鹿) - Angelo Branduardi[00:00:00]

"Tell us our good master[00:00:26]

Why you sit there so quietly[00:00:28]

And where are the trophies[00:00:32]

You usually bring home[00:00:35]

Like the heads of the Bengal tiger[00:00:38]

That decorate your great hall[00:00:41]

And the skins of lion and zebra[00:00:44]

That you've laid wall to wall "[00:00:47]

"My friends [00:00:51]

In the foothills before the rainy season[00:00:52]

I went out hunting one day all by myself [00:00:57]

Keeping the wind in my face I crept up[00:01:03]

To where a herd of deer were grazing[00:01:07]

When suddenly before me[00:01:11]

Stood a great horned king of stags[00:01:14]

And it's the truth I tell you believe me[00:01:17]

As the lord above's my witness [00:01:22]

The great beast did not quaver[00:01:25]

But softly began to speak "[00:01:28]

"It's written in the stars lord[00:01:36]

Upon this day I die[00:01:39]

So these my gifts I offer[00:01:42]

To you this Eastertide:[00:01:46]

These majestic antlers for you[00:01:49]

To hang your bows on[00:01:53]

And these my ears as fine cups[00:01:55]

For you to toast your ladies [00:01:58]

Take both my bright eyes[00:02:01]

For a pair of shining mirrors[00:02:04]

And all these bristles[00:02:08]

For brushes to shave your face [00:02:11]

I pray that you eat my flesh for ten days[00:02:14]

And from my hide you make a warm coat[00:02:18]

And as for your strength and courage[00:02:22]

My liver will serve you well[00:02:25]

Thus in the stars it's written my good sir[00:02:28]

That the body of this your servant[00:02:33]

Seven times will be fruitful[00:02:36]

And seven times be reborn "[00:02:39]

"Tell us our good master[00:02:47]

Why you sit there so quietly[00:02:50]

And where are all the trophies[00:02:53]

You usually bring home "[00:02:56]

You usually bring home "[00:03:00]
