The White Hare

Seth Lakeman · Other Songs - Seth Lakeman

I heard her in the valley

I heard her in the dead of night

The warning of a white hare

With her eyes burning bright

Careful you don't catch her

Or give her right of way

For she will look upon you and steal your soul away



For the white hare is calling

She's dancing in the night

She'll be out till the morning

Light



Out upon the heather

A shadow came on to me

Her hair was hanging over

A face I could not see

She ran behind the rocks

I heard the hounds cry

The image of a woman

Her head, she held up high



For the white hare is calling

She's dancing in the night

She'll be out till the morning

With her eyes burning bright

The White Hare is calling you



(Ooooh-ohh) x 3



If you go hunting

Calling out your prey

If you see a fair maid,

With hair, ash and grey



Careful you don't catch her

Or give her right of way

For she will look upon you and steal your soul away



For the white hare is calling

She's dancing in the night

She'll be out till the morning

With her eyes burning bright

The White Hare is calling you



(Ooh-ooh) x 4



You can hear her call, every night

You can hear her call, every night

You can hear her call
