Hilla Lilla
Hilla Lilla sits in her bedchamber
No one knows my sorrow but God
She shed many tears down her cheek
He who could share my pain is gone
An urgent message arrived to the Queen
Proud Hilla Lilla sews frenzied her seams
No one knows my sorrow but God
The Queen wears her cloak of blue
To pay proud Hilla Lilla a visit to
He who could share my pain is gone
Gracious Queen please sit down here
That I may tell to you my sorrows my dear
No one knows my sorrow but God
My father he kept me oh so pure
No one knows my sorrow but God
Served by a knight both hand and foot
He who could share my pain is gone
And it was the Duke of Hillebrand
No one knows my sorrow but God
With him I would flee to the foreign lands
He who could share my pain is gone
And when we reached a shady grove
No one knows my sorrow but God
There the Duke he lay himself down
He who could share my pain is gone
He lay for a time inside of me
No one knows my sorrow but God
And then he slept so calm and sweet
He who could share my pain is gone
Hillebrand Hillebrand sleep not now
I hear my father and my seven brothers
Hardly had I said these words
When seven wounds struck my Hillebrand down
One brother seized my golden locks
And bound me onto his saddle horn
And when we came to the first gate
My mother forlorn stood awaiting me
My brother he wished to strangle me
But my mother she chose to sell me away
He who could share my pain is gone
She sold me for a brand new bell
No one knows my sorrow but God
It hangs in the village of Marie Church
He who could share my pain is gone
When my mother heard the chime of that bell
No one knows my sorrow but God
Her heart it shattered into pieces small
He who could share my pain is gone
Proud Hilla Lilla finished her tale
No one knows my sorrow but God
At the Queen's feet she fell dead
He who could share my pain is gone
