Nine Thorny Thickets - Peggy Lee (佩吉·李)[00:00:00]
All this I was doing over a man[00:00:09]
In loneliness going across the bare moor[00:00:17]
And through the blind night in the pitch of the darkness[00:00:25]
Lost from the high road[00:00:32]
Through many ridged fields down slopes that were soggy[00:00:42]
Over stubble and furrow with stumble and sorrow[00:00:51]
Through nine thorny thickets by ruined old forts[00:01:03]
To the brow of the mountain[00:01:12]
And missing the bogs and their green habitation[00:01:21]
Whose hateful companions circled around me[00:01:30]
A fighter betrayed in the thick of the battle[00:01:37]
A girl in a jail[00:01:48]
A girl in a jail[00:01:55]
But worse than the fogs of all desolation[00:02:08]
Were the spirits of evil circling around me[00:02:16]
And my crossing and praying[00:02:23]
My charming and rhyme of little avail[00:02:27]
This took a long time but at last I looked up[00:02:40]
And there were the stars[00:02:47]
Like cherries they were[00:02:57]
In the orchard of night[00:03:03]
All yellow and red all shining and bright[00:03:09]
The sparks of the bonfired for seven dear saints[00:03:25]
The gems of the host and the harness of heaven[00:03:30]
The pickets of embers whose orbits are long[00:03:35]
And wind cannot take them[00:03:39]
Wind cannot take them[00:03:46]
I stopped in my tracks[00:03:55]
Look you I said[00:04:00]
This is over and done he has got to be told[00:04:04]
God forgive me the telling I'll travel no more[00:04:13]
To the door of his dwelling I'll travel no more[00:04:21]
Through any such goings nor blunt my good axe[00:04:29]
On the face of the stone[00:04:39]
