mckennitt loreena - Blacksmith слова песни
Trad. arr. by Loreena McKennittA blacksmith courted meNine months and betterHe fairly won my heartWrote me a letterWith his hammer in his handHe looked quite cleverAnd if I was with my loveI`d live for ever.But where is my love goneWith his cheeks like rosesAnd his good black Billycock onDecked round with primrosesI`m afraid the scorching sunWill shine and burn his beautyAnd if I was with my loveI`d do my duty.Strange news is come to townStrange news is carriedStrange news flys up and downThat my love is married.I wish them both much joyThough they can`t hear meAnd may God reward him wellFor the slighting of me.Don`t you remember whenYou lay beside meAnd you said you`d marry meAnd not deny me.If I said I`d marry youIt was only for to try youSo bring your witness loveAnd I`ll not deny you.No witness have I noneSave God AlmightyAnd may he reward you wellFor the slighting of meHer lips grew pale and wanIt made a poor heart trembleTo think she loved a oneAnd he proved deceitful.A blacksmith courted meNine months and betterHe fairly won my heartWrote me a letterWith his hammer in his handHe looked quite cleverAnd if I was with my loveI`d live for ever
