《A Ballad》歌词

[00:00:00] A Ballad - Kate Rusby

[00:00:25] Take the robe from off thy form

[00:00:31] And cease thine hair to braid

[00:00:38] Thy love to thee will come no more

[00:00:43] He woos another maid

[00:00:50] And broken are the many vows

[00:00:56] That he hath pledged to thee

[00:01:02] He woos another maid and this

[00:01:08] My bridal morn should be

[00:01:15] False to me oh say not so

[00:01:21] For if thy tale be true

[00:01:27] And the one that I love be lost to me

[00:01:33] I shall not live to rue

[00:01:40] And if he do take another mate

[00:01:47] Before the holy shrine

[00:01:53] Another ne'er shall have my heart

[00:01:59] Death will be a friend of mine

[00:02:23] She takes the robes from off her form

[00:02:29] And dons a snow white gown

[00:02:35] She loosened from her locks the braid

[00:02:41] And let her hair hang down

[00:02:47] She flung around her lovely head

[00:02:54] The thin shround of her veil

[00:03:00] To hide the fast ascending tears

[00:03:07] And cheek of moon ray pale

[00:03:14] With hurried yet with careful steps

[00:03:20] Into the church she hides

[00:03:26] And there she saw the false of heart

[00:03:32] Receive another bride

[00:03:39] The bridal pageant swept along

[00:03:45] 'Til all the train had fled

[00:03:51] Why stands the lone deserted one

[00:03:58] She slumbers with the dead
