Ye Courtyard Minstrel Boy lyrics

NOBLEMAN (IAN PARRY):

A new horizon

Hear the travellers call!

Behold there lies a kingdom

Go forth, ye minstrel tall!

Sing of your wisdom

Spread tidings of joy

A feast of song and laughter

Ye courtyard minstrel boy

O'dance thee 'round the table

For conquerors and kings!

Thou must win the heart of Gweniviere

Fair maiden of the king!

Thy lord, thy master

Arthur thee so bold

Heed the words of Ayreon

And thy future will unfold!

Sing ye tales of wonder

Whilst ye hide behind the joy!

Cast thy spell asunder

Ye courtyard minstrel boy!

Sing ye, oh sing ye, courtyard minstrel boy!

Sing ye, oh sing ye, courtyard minstrel boy!

A day of splendour

How beautiful birds sing!

Ladies, lords and masters

And rainbows he would bring!

A child's sadness

Sweet dreams, oh princely boy!

Let thine eyes reveal the madness

Ye courtyard minstrel boy!

Sing ye tales of wonder

Whilst ye hide behind the joy!

Cast thy spell asunder

Ye courtyard minstrel boy!
