Through bushes and through briars
I lately took my way
For to hear the small birds singing
And the lambs to sport and play
I overheard a frail voice
A voice that was so clear
A long time have I been waiting
For the coming of my dear

Come again

Come again

Come again

Come again

Through bushes and through briars
I lately took my way
For to hear the small birds singing
And the lambs to sport and play
I overheard a frail voice
A voice that was so clear
A long time have I been waiting
For the coming of my dear

Come again

Come again

Come again

Come again

Come again

etc.

but WHERE is that vocal originally from?????

Cheers for the correction

I always thought it was a Clannad tune, no idea where I got that info from, though

a link to one version http://www.shawnhaussler.com/song02.html

apparently it's an old english folk song by Ralph Vaughan Williams. The version sampled is by Maddy Prior

yea.... it probably is . Hmmmmmm.... d&b remix .....Hmmmm..... ;)

Hmmmmmmmm.....Hmmmmmmm.......I sense a new sample hunt .

There's no reference to this in this dicsog of Maddy Prior and it seems very thourough.

There are a couple of tunes with similar lyrics, though

yeah, i couldnt find it either, but the info came from someone over on the kniteforce forum, he seemed fairly sure about it!. maybe it was a one off live recording or something. The challenge to find it is on!

more references to the maddy prior sample
