	Put the saddle on the mare,~~<br />~~		<poem>
	For the wet winds blow;~~<br />~~		Put the saddle on the mare,
	There's winter in the air,~~<br />~~		For the wet winds blow;
	And autumn all below.~~<br />~~		There's winter in the air,
	For the red leaves are flying~~<br />~~		And autumn all below.
	And the red bracken dying,~~<br />~~		For the red leaves are flying
	And the red fox lying~~<br />~~		And the red bracken dying,
			And the red fox lying
	Where the oziers grow.		Where the oziers grow.

	Put the bridle on the mare,~~<br />~~		Put the bridle on the mare,
	For my blood runs chill;~~<br />~~		For my blood runs chill;
	And my heart, it is there,~~<br />~~		And my heart, it is there,
	On the heather-tufted hill,~~<br />~~		On the heather-tufted hill,
	With the gray skies o'er us,~~<br />~~		With the gray skies o'er us,
	And the long-drawn chorus~~<br />~~		And the long-drawn chorus
	Of a running pack before us~~<br />~~		Of a running pack before us
	From the find to the kill.		From the find to the kill.

	Then lead round the mare,~~<br />~~		Then lead round the mare,
	For it's time that we began,~~<br />~~		For it's time that we began,
	And away with thought and care,~~<br />~~		And away with thought and care,
	Save to live and be a man,~~<br />~~		Save to live and be a man,
	While the keen air is blowing,~~<br />~~		While the keen air is blowing,
	And the huntsman holloing,~~<br />~~		And the huntsman holloing,
	And the black mare going~~<br />~~		And the black mare going
	As the black mare can.		As the black mare can.

Put the saddle on the mare, 
For the wet winds blow; 
There's winter in the air, 
And autumn all below. 
For the red leaves are flying 
And the red bracken dying, 
And the red fox lying 
Where the oziers grow.

Put the bridle on the mare, 
For my blood runs chill; 
And my heart, it is there, 
On the heather-tufted hill, 
With the gray skies o'er us, 
And the long-drawn chorus 
Of a running pack before us 
From the find to the kill.

Then lead round the mare, 
For it's time that we began, 
And away with thought and care, 
Save to live and be a man, 
While the keen air is blowing, 
And the huntsman holloing, 
And the black mare going 
As the black mare can.
