Lyrics Purcell: King Arthur, Z. 628, Act 1: "Come if you dare" (Tenor, Chorus) - Henry Purcell , John Eliot Gardiner , Paul Elliott
Come,
if
you
dare,
our
trumpets'
sound
Come,
if
you
dare,
the
foe's
rebound
We
come,
we
come,
we
come,
we
come!
Says
the
double,
double,
double
beat
of
the
thund'ring
drum
Now
they
charge
on
amain,
now
they
rally
again
The
gods
from
above
the
mad
labour
behold
And
pity
mankind
that
will
perish
for
gold
The
fainting
Saxons
quit
their
ground
Their
trumpets
languish
in
their
sound
They
fly,
they
fly,
they
fly,
they
fly!
Victoria!
Victoria!
The
bold
Britons
cry
Now
the
victory's
won,
to
the
plunder
we
run
We
return
to
our
lasses
like
fortunate
raiders
Triumphant
with
spoils
of
the
vanquished
invaders
