Mary Hamilton - Joan Baez (琼·贝兹)[00:00:00]
Word is to the kitchen gone [00:00:06]
And word is to the Hall[00:00:11]
And word is up to Madam the Queen [00:00:17]
And that's the worst of all[00:00:23]
That Mary Hamilton has borne a babe[00:00:28]
To the highest Stuart of all[00:00:34]
Oh rise arise Mary Hamilton[00:00:42]
Arise and tell to me[00:00:49]
What thou hast done with thy wee babe[00:00:54]
I saw and heard weep by thee[00:01:00]
I put him in a tiny boat[00:01:08]
And cast him out to sea[00:01:14]
That he might sink or he might swim[00:01:20]
But he'd never come back to me[00:01:25]
Oh rise arise Mary Hamilton[00:01:34]
Arise and come with me[00:01:40]
There is a wedding in Glasgow town[00:01:45]
This night we'll go and see[00:01:51]
She put not on her robes of black[00:01:59]
Nor her robes of brown[00:02:05]
But she put on her robes of white[00:02:10]
To ride into Glasgow town[00:02:16]
And as she rode into Glasgow town[00:02:24]
The city for to see[00:02:30]
The bailiff's wife[00:02:35]
And the provost's wife[00:02:37]
Cried Alack and alas for thee[00:02:41]
You need not weep for me she cried[00:02:49]
You need not week for me[00:02:54]
For had I not slain my own wee babe[00:03:00]
This death I would not dee[00:03:06]
Oh little did my mother think[00:03:14]
When first she cradled me[00:03:19]
The lands I was to travel in[00:03:25]
And the death I was to dee[00:03:30]
Last night I washed the Queen's feet[00:03:39]
And put the gold in her hair[00:03:45]
And the only reward I find for this[00:03:49]
The gallows to be my share[00:03:55]
Cast off cast off my gown she cried[00:04:04]
But let my petticoat be[00:04:09]
And tie a napkin round my face[00:04:14]
The gallows I would not see[00:04:20]
Then by them come the king himself[00:04:28]
Looked up with a pitiful eye[00:04:34]
Come down come down Mary Hamillton[00:04:39]
Tonight you will dine with me[00:04:45]
Oh hold your tongue my sovereign liege[00:04:56]
And let your folly be[00:05:01]
For if you'd a mind to save my life[00:05:06]
You'd never have shamed me here[00:05:12]
Last night there were four marys[00:05:21]
Tonight there'll be but three[00:05:26]
It was Mary Beaton and Mary Seton[00:05:31]
And Mary Carmichael and me [00:05:38]
