The Blacksmith歌词

[00:00.212]The Blacksmith -Déanta
[00:01.112]A blacksmith courted me nine months or better
[00:13.621]He bravely won my heart wrote me a letter
[00:26.333]With his hammer in his hand he looked quite clever
[00:36.985]And if I was with my love I'd live forever
[00:54.905]But where is my love gone with his cheeks like roses
[01:01.878]And his good black billycock on all crowned with primroses
[01:08.887]I'm afraid the scorching sun will shine and burn his beauty
[01:16.210]And if I was with my love I'd do my duty
[01:23.770]Strange news has come to town strange news is carried
[01:31.234]Strange news flies up and down that my love he's married
[01:38.610]I wish them both much joy though they can't hear me
[01:45.906]And may God reward them well for the slighting of me
[02:08.271]Don't you remember well when you lay beside me
[02:14.999]And you said you'd marry me and not deny me
[02:21.799]If I said I'd marry you it
[02:25.385]Was only for to try you
[02:29.209]So bring your witness love and I'll not deny you
[02:36.226]Oh witness have I none save God Almighty
[02:42.832]And may he reward you well for the slighting of me
[02:49.879]Her lips grew pale and wan it made her poor heart tremble
[02:56.984]To think she loved a one and he proved deceitful
