Три ворона (англ. The Three Ravens) — народная баллада, напечатанная в песеннике Melismata, и опубликованная в 1611 году, но, возможно, существовавшая и ранее. Известны более новые варианты (с другой мелодией) вплоть до XIX века.
The Twa Corbies
В этом произведении только две птицы, но это — самое незначительное различие между песнями, хотя и с похожими началами. Полный текст одного из вариантов:
As I was walking all alane, I heard twa corbies making a mane; The tane unto the t’other say, 'Where sall we gang and dine to-day?' 'In behint yon auld fail dyke, I wot there lies a new slain knight; And naebody kens that he lies there, But his hawk, his hound, and lady fair. 'His hound is to the hunting gane, His hawk to fetch the wild-fowl hame, His lady’s ta’en another mate, So we may mak our dinner sweet. 'Ye’ll sit on his white hause-bane, And I’ll pike out his bonny blue een; Wi ae lock o his gowden hair We’ll, theek our nest when it grows bare. 'Mony a one for him makes mane, But nane sall ken where he is gane; Oer his white banes, when they we bare, The wind sall blaw for evermair.'
