Were The World Mine Lyrics

I see their knavery,
This is to make an a** of me,
To fright me - if they could.
But I will not stir from this place -
do what they can
I will walk up and down here.
And I will sing that they shall hear,
That I am not, I am not afraid,
I am not afraid

I know not by what power I made bold,
But still you flout my insufficient seed
The more my prayer, the lesser is my grace.

My ear should catch your voice; my eye, your eye,
My tongue should catch your tongue, sweet melody,
My tongue your tongue were the world mine

And I will sing that they shall hear
That I am not, I am not afraid,
I am not afraid

Faeries away, fetch me that flower
(up and down and up and down)
I will lead them up and down

Faeries away, swift as a shadow
(up and down and up and down)
I will lead them up and down!
Oh, why rebuke you him that loves you so?
Lay breath so bitter, on your bitter foe
On your bitter foe

What angel wakes me from my flowery bed?
I pray thee gentle mortal sing again -
I pray thee gentle mortal sing, again

Mine ear is much enamored of thy note
So is mine eye enthralled to thy shape
I'll follow thee
I'll follow thee
and make a heaven of hell

I'll follow thee
I'll follow thee
And make a heaven of hell
[And make a heaven of hell]
(Faeries away, fetch me that flower
up and down and up and down
I will lead them up and down)

(Faeries away, swift as a shadow
up and down and up and down
I will lead them up and down!)

(Faeries away, fetch me that flower
up and down and up and down
I will lead them up and-)

(Faeries away, swift as a shadow
up and down and up and down
I will lead them up and down!)

[My ear should catch your voice,
My eye should catch your eye,
My tongue your tongue were the world mine]
