English text
Are you haunt our hallowed greene,
none but Fayries here are seene,
downe and sleepe, wake and weepe:
pinch him blacke, and pinch him blew,
that seekes to steale a Lover true.
When you come to hear us sing
or to treade our Fayrie ring,
pinch him blacke, and pinch him blew,
O thus our nayles shall handle you.
