The lyrics are about a deceased knight found by a “fallow girl”, she takes care of his body until she buries him while being observed by an angel.
Down on the moor in a green old field
There lies a knight slain under his shield
His hounds they lie down at his feet
So well they can their master keep
The bold knight above
If he see that angel with her love
The bold knight above
If he could see that angel with her love
Down on the moor a fallow girl
As great with young for all the world
She lifted up his bloody head
And kissed his wounds that were so red
The bold knight above
If he see that angel with her love
The bold knight above
If he could see that angel with her love
Once more
She picked him up upon her back
And carried him no hands attached
She buried him before their prime
Then she was dead herself at even time
The bold knight above
If he see that angel with her love
The bold knight above
If he could see that angel with her love
Once more
