| [00:11.368] |
In Oxford city there lived a lady, |
| [00:16.610] |
And she was beautiful and fair. |
| [00:20.866] |
And she was courted by a sailor, |
| [00:25.120] |
And he did love her as his dear. |
| [00:33.122] |
|
| [00:34.875] |
He said:' My dear, let us be married, |
| [00:39.109] |
Let us now no longer stay. |
| [00:43.104] |
I'll work for you both late and early |
| [00:47.855] |
If you my wedded bride will be. |
| [00:59.102] |
|
| [01:03.616] |
He saw her dancing with another. |
| [01:07.869] |
A jealous thought came to his mind; |
| [01:12.119] |
And to destroy his own true lover, |
| [01:16.362] |
He gave to her a glass of wine. |
| [01:24.860] |
|
| [01:26.365] |
So soon she drank it, so soon she felt it. |
| [01:30.367] |
'Oh, hold me fast, my dear,' said she. |
| [01:34.864] |
Is it that glass of wine you did give me, |
| [01:48.318] |
That takes my sweet young life away? |
| [01:54.057] |
|
| [02:10.809] |
Oh listen my love now I'll tell you |
| [02:15.320] |
That glass of wine did poison hide, |
| [02:19.579] |
For if you won't be my own lover, |
| [02:23.824] |
You'll never be another's bride. |
| [02:38.820] |
|
| [02:40.072] |
Oh, that glass of wine which I gave you, |
| [02:44.321] |
Oh, I did drink it since I give, |
| [02:48.564] |
And in each other's arms we'll die together, |
| [02:53.056] |
To warn young men of jealousy. |
| [03:01.317] |
|
| [03:02.565] |
Oh hark, oh hark, the cocks are crowing. |
| [03:06.805] |
And soon the daylight will appear, |
| [03:11.317] |
And into my cold grave I am going, |
| [03:15.321] |
And you my love will join me there. |
| [03:27.080] |
