Lyrics The Death of Queen Jane - Loreena McKennitt
Queen
Jane
lay
in
labour
Full
nine
days
or
more
Till
her
women
so
tired
They
could
no
longer
bare
They
could
no
longer
bare
Good
women,
good
women
Good
women
that
ye
my
be
Will
you
open
my
right
side
And
find
my
baby
And
find
my
baby
Oh
no
cried
the
women
That′s
a
thing
that
never
can
be
We
will
send
for
King
Henry
And
hear
what
he
might
say
And
hear
what
he
might
say
King
Henry
was
sent
for
King
Henry
he
did
come
Saying,
"What
ails
thee
my
lady?
Your
eyes
they
look
so
dim
Your
eyes
they
look
so
dim"
King
Henry,
King
Henry
Will
you
do
one
thing
for
me?
That's
to
open
my
right
side
And
find
my
baby
And
find
my
baby
"Oh
no,"
cried
King
Henry
"That′s
a
thing
that
I'll
never
do
If
I
lose
the
flower
of
England
I
shall
lose
the
branch
too
I
shall
lose
the
branch
too"
There
was
fiddling
and
dancing
On
the
day
the
babe
was
born
But
poor
Queen
Jane
of
England
Lay
cold
as
the
stone
Lay
cold
as
the
stone
