Joan Baez - The Unquiet Grave (Child No. 78) слова песни
(revised version sung by Joan Baez)Cold blows the wind to my true love,And gently drops the rain.I`ve never had but one true love,And in green-wood he lies slain.I`ll do as much for my true love,As any young girl may,I`ll sit and mourn all on his grave,For twelve months and a day.And when twelve months and a day was passed,The ghost did rise and speak,"Why sittest thou all on my graveAnd will no let me sleep?""Go fetch me water from the desert,And blood from out the stone,Go fetch me milk from a fair maid`s breastThat young man never has known.""How oft on yonder grave, sweetheart,Where we were want to walk,The fairest flower that e`er I sawHas withered to a stalk.""A stalk has withered and dead, sweetheart,The flower will never return,And since I`ve lost my own true love,What can I do but yearn.""When will we meet again, sweetheart,When will we meet again?""When the autumn leaves that fall from the treesAre green and spring up again."The Unquiet Grave (Child #78)Traditional Folk SongFrom "Joan Baez 5"sung by Joan Baez (5), Frankie Armstrong(Lovely on Water), Ian Campbell, and Patons
