Tam Lin (BBC Session - Top Gear 27/9/69) - Fairport Convention (公平港口大会)[00:00:00]

I forbid you maidens all that wear gold in your hair[00:00:08]

To travel to Carter Hall for young Tam Lin is there[00:00:14]

None that go by Carter Hall but they leave him a pledge[00:00:23]

Either their mantles of green or else their maidenhead[00:00:28]

Janet tied her kirtle green a bit above her knee[00:00:37]

And she's gone to Carter Hall as fast as go can she[00:00:43]

She'd not pulled a double rose a rose but only two[00:00:51]

When up there came young Tam Lin says Lady pull no more[00:00:57]

And why come you to Carter Hall without command from me[00:01:06]

I'll come and go young Janet said and ask no leave of thee[00:01:12]

Janet tied her kirtle green a bit above her knee[00:01:47]

And she's gone to her father as fast as go can she[00:01:53]

Well up then spoke her father dear and he spoke meek and mild[00:02:01]

Oh and alas Janet he said I think you go with child[00:02:07]

Well if that be so Janet said myself shall bear the blame[00:02:16]

There's not a knight in all your hall shall get the baby's name[00:02:22]

If my love were an earthly knight as he is an elfin grey[00:02:31]

I'd not change my own true love for any knight you have[00:02:36]

Janet tied her kirtle green a bit above her knee[00:03:09]

And she's gone to Carter Hall as fast as go can she[00:03:14]

Tell to me Tam Lin she said how came you here to dwell[00:03:23]

The Queen of Faeries caught me when from my horse I fell[00:03:29]

And at the end of seven years she pays a tithe to hell[00:03:37]

I so fair and full of flesh and feared it be myself[00:03:44]

But tonight is Hallowe'en and the faery folk ride[00:03:53]

Those that would their true love win at Miles Cross they must buy[00:03:58]

So first let past the horses black and then let past the brown[00:04:06]

Quickly run to the white steed and pull the rider down[00:04:12]

For I'll ride on the white steed the nearest to the town[00:04:21]

For I was an earthly knight they give me that renown[00:04:27]

They will turn me in your arms to a newt or a snake[00:04:35]

But hold me tight and tight fear not I am your baby's father[00:04:41]

And they will turn me in your arms into a lion bold[00:04:50]

But hold me tight and tight[00:04:56]

Fear not and you will love your child[00:04:58]

And they will turn me in your arms into a naked knight[00:05:04]

But cloak me in your mantle and keep me out of sight[00:05:10]

In the middle of the night she heard the bridle ring[00:05:51]

She heeded what he did say and young Tam Lin did win[00:05:56]

Up then spoke the Faery Queen an angry queen was she[00:06:05]

Woe betide her ill-fought face an ill death may she die[00:06:11]

Had I known Tam Lin she said what this knight I did see[00:06:20]

I have looked you in the eyes and turned you to a tree[00:06:26]
