alasdair roberts - i walked abroad in an evil hour lyrics

Loading...

i left behind my earthly things,
my silver beads and golden rings.
i left behind my father’s bower
to walk abroad in an evil hour.

by the verdant braes o’ callander,
where the broad, majestic lenny flows,
i saw a gathering of men
underneath the rowan bowers.

and they summoned you and you were there;
the moon lightened your silver hair.
you rose above the rowan trees,
and this is what you said to me:

“oh, watch in rapture, watch in joy,
as i transcend before you, boy.
to call you man i’d lie withal,
for yours a lowly kind of soul.

“and the gods command and you obey;
you dance until the break of day.
the gods command and i defy;
i dance away into the sky.”

i left behind my earthly things,
my silver beads and golden rings.
i left behind my father’s bower
to walk abroad in an evil hour.i left behind my earthly
things,
my silver beads and golden rings.
i left behind my father’s bower
to walk abroad in an evil hour.

by the verdant braes o’ callander,
where the broad, majestic lenny flows,
i saw a gathering of men
underneath the rowan bowers.

and they summoned you and you were there;
the moon lightened your silver hair.
you rose above the rowan trees,
and this is what you said to me:

“oh, watch in rapture, watch in joy,
as i transcend before you, boy.
to call you man i’d lie withal,
for yours a lowly kind of soul.

“and the gods command and you obey;
you dance until the break of day.
the gods command and i defy;
i dance away into the sky.”

i left behind my earthly things,
my silver beads and golden rings.
i left behind my father’s bower
to walk abroad in an evil hour.
