the mccalmans - the bonnie maid of fife lyrics

Loading...

an evening fair i took the air
down by the river forth
to take my ease and watch the geese
fly in squadrons from the north
there i spied along the tide
i knew in all my life
that i had never seen such a gentle queen
as the bonnie maid of fife

her eyes were like some summer fair
in autumn’s wisdoms stored
a man could find more treasure there
than in any pirate’s h++rd

a smile so free, as rich as the sеa
pierced my heart likе a knife
as she skipped and she danced along the sands
the bonnie maid of fife

and as she danced she sang a tune
of a hue both sweet and sad
its gentle tones could charm the stones
or captivate any lad
birds began to tune their voice
and set the sky alive
ah but their notes were shrill all beside the trill
of the bonnie maid of fife
and i have been a traveller bold
far off from scotland’s gates
unto holland and to norway
i’ve plied a roving trade
i’ve seen fair maids in london town
i’ve lived a free man’s life
ah but my heart’s full swell is in the spell
of the bonnie maid of fife
ah but my heart’s full swell is in the spell
of the bonnie maid of fife
