One bright summer morning as day was a dawning |
| [00:13.98] |
Bright Phoebus had risen shone over the lea |
| [00:19.67] |
|
| [00:20.23] |
I spied a fair maiden all down by the river |
| [00:25.04] |
While herding her flocks on the hills of Glenshee |
| [00:29.98] |
|
| [00:33.23] |
I stood in amazement, said I, "Pretty fair maid |
| [00:38.23] |
If you will come down to James Town with me |
| [00:43.85] |
There's ne'er been a lady set foot in my castle |
| [00:48.17] |
There's ne'er been a lady dressed grander than thee" |
| [00:53.73] |
|
| [00:57.36] |
"A coach and six horses to at go your bidding |
| [01:01.45] |
And all men that speak shall say "ma'am unto thee" |
| [01:06.51] |
Fine servants to serve you and go at your bidding |
| [01:11.20] |
I'll make you my bride, my sweet lass of Glenshee" |
| [01:16.57] |
|
| [01:25.07] |
~Music~ |
| [01:28.20] |
|
| [01:34.01] |
"Oh what do I care for your castles and coaches? |
| [01:38.01] |
And what do I care for your gay grandeury? |
| [01:43.51] |
I'd rather be home at my cot, at my spinning |
| [01:48.07] |
Or herding my flocks on the hills of Glenshee" |
| [01:52.38] |
|
| [01:54.01] |
"Away with such nonsense and get up beside me |
| [01:58.64] |
When summer has come my sweet bride you will be |
| [02:03.39] |
And then in my arms I will gently caress thee" |
| [02:08.20] |
'Twas then she consented, I took her with me |
| [02:14.07] |
~Music~ |
| [02:34.63] |
|
| [02:48.39] |
Many years have rolled on since we were united |
| [02:52.70] |
There's many's a change, but there's no change on me |
| [02:58.82] |
And my love, she's as fair as that morn on the mountain |
| [03:03.45] |
I plucked me a wild rose |
| [03:06.95] |
|
| [03:08.82] |
~Music~ |
| [03:31.98] |
