[00:00.00] 作词 : Traditional
[00:04.51]The lady sits in her own front door
[00:06.78]As straight as the willow wand,
[00:09.10]And by there come a lusty smith
[00:11.09]With a hammer in his hand.
[00:12.85]And he said, "Bide, lady bide,
[00:15.32]There's nowhere you can hide.
[00:17.54]For the lusty smith will be your love
[00:19.72]And he will lay your pride."
[00:21.81]"Well may you stand, you lady fair,
[00:23.99]All in your robes of red,
[00:26.24]But come tomorrow at this same time
[00:28.20]I'll have you in me bed."
[00:29.98]And he said, "Bide, lady bide,
[00:32.52]There's nowhere you can hide.
[00:34.64]For the lusty smith will be your love
[00:36.87]And he will lay your pride."
[00:38.94]"Away, away, you coal-black smith,
[00:41.10]Would you do me this wrong?
[00:43.18]To think to have my maidenhead
[00:45.33]That I have kept so long.
[00:47.38]"I'd rather I was dead and cold
[00:49.56]And me body laid in the grave
[00:51.62]Than a lusty, dusty, coal-black smith
[00:53.75]My maidenhead should have."
[00:55.83]So the lady she held up her hand,
[00:58.03]She swore upon her soul
[01:00.13]That she'd not need the blacksmith's love
[01:02.28]For all of a box of gold.
[01:04.33]But the blacksmith he held up his hand
[01:06.47]And he swore upon the mass
[01:08.31]Saying, "I'll have you in me bed young girl
[01:10.70]For the half of that or less."
[01:12.84]"Bide lady bide,
[01:14.84]There's nowhere you can hide.
[01:17.08]For the lusty smith will be your love
[01:19.08]And he will lay your pride."
[01:29.66]So the lady she turned into a dove
[01:31.78]And she flew up in the air;
[01:33.96]But he became an old cock pigeon
[01:36.08]And they flew pair and pair.
[01:37.68]Crying, "Bide, lady bide,
[01:40.29]There's nowhere you can hide.
[01:42.29]For the lusty smith will be your love
[01:44.60]And he will lay your pride."
[01:47.67]So the lady she turned into a hare
[01:49.77]And she ran across the plain;
[01:51.95]But he became a greyhound dog
[01:53.83]And he ran her down again.
[01:55.71]Crying, "Bide, lady bide,
[01:58.22]There's nowhere you can hide.
[02:00.43]For the lusty smith will be your love
[02:02.74]And he will lay your pride."
[02:04.95]So she became a little mare
[02:06.81]As dark as the night was black;
[02:08.94]But he became a golden saddle
[02:11.06]And he clung onto her back.
[02:12.82]Crying, "Bide, lady bide,
[02:15.14]There's nowhere you can hide.
[02:17.33]For the lusty smith will be your love
[02:19.35]And he will lay your pride."
[02:29.84]So she became a hot griddle
[02:31.70]And he became a cake;
[02:33.82]And every move that poor girl made
[02:35.97]The blacksmith was her mate.
[02:37.72]Crying, "Bide, lady bide,
[02:40.15]There's nowhere you can hide.
[02:42.26]For the lusty smith will be your love
[02:44.53]And he will lay your pride."
[02:46.66]So she became a full-dressed ship
[02:48.76]And she sailed on the sea;
[02:50.88]But he became a bold captain
[02:52.81]And aboard of her went he.
[02:54.86]Crying, "Bide, lady bide,
[02:57.13]There's nowhere you can hide.
[02:59.27]For the lusty smith will be your love
[03:01.53]And he will lay your pride."
[03:03.49]So the lady she ran into the bedroom
[03:05.79]And she changed into a bed;
[03:07.65]But he became a green coverlet
[03:09.73]And he gained her maidenhead.
[03:11.87]And was she woke he held her so
[03:13.81]And still he bade her bide;
[03:16.00]And the lusty smith became her love
[03:18.12]For all her mighty pride.
