As I rode out one morning all on All Hallows' Eve
• • • •
Em C D Em D Em
'Twas there I met with the Horned Man and I asked of him his leave
• • •+ •
G D Em D
His hooves were of the kettle iron, his horns sprang like the bow
• • • • •
Em C D Em D Em
And I was caught up in his pack with the Wild Hunt for to go
• • •+ • •
We rode and ranged through autumn glade, and the Earth grew cold and chill
• • • •
And everywhere his wild hunt drove, we worked his icy will
• • •+ •
We rode through village, field and town, and shutters drew in fear
• • • • •
For before us ran the Horned Man, our Winter Lord so dear
• • •+ • •
But then at last by starlight, we came to that wild glade
• • • •
Where we danced the circle rites and the winter spell was laid
• • •+ •
And there I saw me father, ten years and seven dead
• • • • •
And he did bear the icy spear, and horns upon his head
• • •+ • •
But all things come unto their end, so from that place I passed
• • • •
And when to Annwn I do go, I'll ride with him at last
• • •+ •
The Horned Man will bless us all, as sure as you were born
• • • • •
So raise your cup, and sup it up. All hail to Hoof and Horn

The night was cold and dark and wet as they wandered on alone

The sky became their canopy, the earth became their throne

And as their raiment ran to rags, they thought it nothing wrong

For earth and sky are robe enough when you sing the gypies' song

They sang and played the gypsies' song wherever they were sent

To some it seemed a dancing tune - to some a sad lament
• • • •
But in every heart that heard then true a tear became a smile
• • • •
And a pauper or a prince became a gypsy for a while
