[00:00:00] Great Selchie Of Shule Skerry - Judy Collins

[00:00:00] Written by：Traditional

[00:00:12] In Norway there sits a maid

[00:00:19] By Lou my baby she begins

[00:00:27] Little know I my child's father

[00:00:34] Or if land or sea he's livin' in

[00:00:44] Then there arose at her bed feet

[00:00:52] And a grumbly guest

[00:00:55] I'm sure it was he

[00:00:59] Saying here am I that child's father

[00:01:07] Although that I am not comely

[00:01:19] I am a man upon the land

[00:01:26] I am a selchie in the sea

[00:01:32] And when I am in my own country

[00:01:39] My dwellin' is in Shule Skerry

[00:01:50] And he hath taken a purse of gold

[00:01:57] He hath put it upon her knee

[00:02:03] Saying give to me my little wee son

[00:02:10] And take thee up that nurse's fee

[00:02:20] And it shall come to pass

[00:02:24] On a summer day

[00:02:28] When the sun shines hot

[00:02:32] On every stone

[00:02:36] That I shall take my little wee son

[00:02:43] And I'll teach him for to swim in the foam

[00:02:53] And you will marry a gunner good

[00:03:00] And a proud good gunner

[00:03:04] I'm sure he'll be and he'll go out on a may morning

[00:03:16] And he'll kill both my wee son and me

[00:03:27] And lo she did marry a gunner good

[00:03:35] And a proud good gunner I'm sure it was he

[00:03:44] And the very first shot that ere he did shoot

[00:03:54] He killed the son and the great Selchie

[00:04:14] In Norway there sits a maid

[00:04:22] By Lou my baby she begins

[00:04:31] Little know I my child's father

[00:04:39] Or if land or sea he's livin' in
