《Thomas the Rhymer》歌词

[00:06:36] True Thomas sat on Huntley bank,

[00:06:36] And he beheld a lady gay;

[00:06:36] A lady that was brisk and bold,

[00:06:36] Come riding o＇er the ferny brae.

[00:06:36] Her skirt was of the grass green silk,

[00:06:36] Her mantle of the velvet fine;

[00:06:36] At every lock of her horse＇s mane,

[00:06:36] Hung fifty silver bells and nine.

[00:06:36] True Thomas, he pulled off his cap,

[00:06:36] And bowed him low down to his knee＇

[00:06:36] ＂All hail, thou mighty Queen of Heaven

[00:06:36] Your like on earth I ne＇er did see.＂

[00:06:36] ＂No, no Thomas,＂ she said,

[00:06:36] ＂That name does not belong to me,

[00:06:36] I am the queen of fair Elfland,

[00:06:36] And I have come to visit thee.＂

[00:06:36] ＂You must go with me Thomas,＂ she said,

[00:06:36] True Thomas you must go with me;

[00:06:36] And must serve me seven years,

[00:06:36] Through well or woe, as chance may be.＂

[00:06:36] Chorus:

[00:06:36] Hark and come, come along with me,

[00:06:36] Thomas the Rhymer;

[00:06:36] Hark and come, come along with me,

[00:06:36] Thomas the Rhymer;

[00:06:36] Hark and come, come along with me,

[00:06:36] Thomas the Rhymer;

[00:06:36] Hark and come, come along with me,

[00:06:36] Thomas the Rhymer.

[00:06:36] She turned about her milk white steed,

[00:06:36] And took Thomas up behind;

[00:06:36] And aye whenever her bridle rang,

[00:06:36] Her steed flew swifter than the wind.

[00:06:36] For forty days and forty nights,

[00:06:36] They rode through red blood to the knee;

[00:06:36] And they saw neither sun nor moon,

[00:06:36] But heard the roaring of the sea.

[00:06:36] And they rode on and further on,

[00:06:36] Further and swifter than the wind;

[00:06:36] Until they came to a desert wide,

[00:06:36] And living land was left behind.

[00:06:36] ＂Don＇t you see yon narrow, narrow road,

[00:06:36] So thick beset with thorns and briars?

[00:06:36] That is the road to righteousness,

[00:06:36] Though after it but few enquire.＂

[00:06:36] ＂Don＇t you see yon broad, broad road,

[00:06:36] Lying lies across the lily leaven?

[00:06:36] That is the road to wickedness,

[00:06:36] Though some call it the road to heaven.＂

[00:06:36] ＂Don＇t you see yon bonnie, bonnie road,

[00:06:36] Lying across the ferny brae?

[00:06:36] That is the road to fair Elfland,

[00:06:36] Where you and I this night must go.＂

[00:06:36] Chorus:
