作词 : Jansch | |
While walking along on a rocky sea shore | |
On a wild wet windy day | |
I heard a sweet voice cry in the wind | |
Saying "Lover come to me" | |
O'er the jagged rocks I scrambled | |
Fingers cut down to the core | |
Saw the light of a lady | |
She was sitting alone on the shore | |
"Lady all alone please tell me, | |
Why do you cry for me? | |
Why do sit in the cold and sing, | |
Sing out to the sea?" | |
"Well I sing for my loved ones | |
Lost in the silvery sea | |
Sing for my homeland so dear | |
Sing to draw your heart near. | |
So please kind sir will you help me | |
To find my way home | |
I've travelled the seven blue oceans. | |
Now I'm stranded here all alone | |
My brothers they are dying | |
From a plague running wild and free | |
Their bodies all covered in the blackest of oil | |
That floats on top of the sea. | |
And my sisters are in hiding | |
Afraid others may see their shame | |
Their bodies all twisted, broken and lame | |
Deep in the watery main. | |
So please kind sir will you help me | |
To find my way home | |
I've travelled the seven blue oceans, | |
How I'm stranded here all alone. | |
If you promise you will take me | |
To the edge of the silvery sea | |
I'll give you all your heart's desires | |
All your eyes they do see" | |
O'er the jagged rocks I carried her | |
To the edge of the silvery sea | |
I laid her down and kissed her sweet lips | |
Saying "Lover, now you are free" | |
But she clung on to my arms | |
And she would not let me be | |
She clung on so fast she pulled me down | |
Down to the bottom of the sea |
