Текст (слова) песни: Loreena Mccennitt - Blacksmith
A blacksmith courted me Nine months and better He fairly won my heart Wrote me a letter With his hammer in his hand He looked quite clever And if I was with my love I`d live for ever.
But where is my love gone With his cheeks like roses And his good black Billycock on Decked round with primroses I`m afraid the scorching sun Will shine and burn his beauty And if I was with my love I`d do my duty.
Strange news is come to town Strange news is carried Strange news flys up and down That my love is married. I wish them both much joy Though they can`t hear me And may God reward him well For the slighting of me.
Don`t you remember when you lay beside me And you said you`d marry me And not deny me. If I said I`d marry you It was only for to try you So bring your witness love And I`ll not deny you.
No witness have I none Save God Almighty And may he reward you well For the slighting of me Her lips grew pale and wan It made a poor heart tremble To think she loved a one And he proved deceitful.
A blacksmith courted me Nine months and better He fairly won my heart Wrote me a letter With his hammer in his hand He looked quite clever And if I was with my love I`d live forever.
