mediæval bæbes - cruel sister lyrics

Loading...

there lived a lady by the north sea shore
lay the bent to the bonnie broom
two daughters were the baebes she bore
fa la la la la la la la la la

as one grew bright as is the sun
so coal black grew the elder one

a knight came riding to the lady’s door
he’d travelled far to be their wooer

he courted one with gloves and rings
but he loved the other abovе all things

oh sister will you go with me
to watch the ships sail on thе sea?
and as they stood on the windy shore
the dark girl shrew her sister o’er

oh sister, sister let me live
and all that’s mine i’ll surely give

your own true love i’ll have and more
but though shalt never come ashore

and there she floated like a swan
the salt sea bore her body on

two minstrels walked along the strand
and saw the maiden float to land

they made a harp of her breastbone
whose sound would melt a heart of stone

they took three locks of her yellow hair
and with them strung the harp so rare

they went into het father’s hall
to play the harp before them all

but when they laid it on a stone
the harp began to play alone
the first sting sang a doleful sound
the bride her younger sister drowned

the second string as they tried
in terror sits the black+haired bride

the third string sang beneath their bow
lay the bent to the bonnie broom
and surely now her tears will flow
fa la la la la la la la la la
