The Ballad of Stone歌词完整版
The Lord of Stone has a-hunting gone
With his hawk and hound so early
His daughter Janet she walks alone
The fairest flower of the valley
The fairest flower of the valley
With skirts tucked neatly she’s made her
way
To the hillside rising so steeply
Where clear waters tumble down Lovers
Gill
She has met her true love young Willy
She has met her true love Willy
“How goes the day my fairest maid?
“Tell me how long you may tarry?
“And tell me how this simple quarryman
“Has picked the fairest flower of the valley
“Picked the fairest flower of the valley”
“The day goes well my quarryman
“While my father hunts may I tarry
“Though your hands are rough and your
lands are none
“You’re the only man I will marry
“You’re the only man I’ll marry”
“If my cruel father should come to know
“He would banish you from this country
“And no love he bears for his kith or kin
“He’d set his hawk and hound upon me
“He’d set hawk and hound upon me”
“Your father may own these lands by law
“But I’m William Stone of this valley
“And my father’s Stone and his father
afore
“There’s no man can take this land from
me
“No man can take this land from me”
Said Janet “Next next time I hear the horn
“A way I now see clearly
“To put an end to my father’s life
That he may no longer harm me
That he may no longer harm me”
The Lord of Stone rose one misted morn
He blew his horn both cruel and mighty
And Janet has to the greenwood gone
Found the noblest hart of the valley
Found the noblest hart of the valley
So soft and gentle she’s led the dear
Through the misted rocks of the quarry
The hunt in chase has gone tumbling
down
And Lord Stone is crushed in the melee
Lord Stone is crushed in the melee
The sheep graze merry by Lovers Gill
The lark and blackbird sing gaily
By the banks of Stone dwell these lover’s
true
The quarryman and his lady
The quarryman and his lady
