Mermaid (美人鱼) - Martin Carthy[00:00:00]

Written by：Martin Carthy/Dave Swarbrick[00:00:12]

One night as I lay on my bed[00:00:24]

I lay so fast asleep[00:00:28]

When the thought of my true love come running in my head[00:00:32]

And sailors that sail on the deep[00:00:37]

As I sailed out one day one day[00:00:41]

And being not far from land[00:00:45]

There I saw a mermaid sat on a rock[00:00:49]

A comb and a glass in her hand[00:00:54]

Now the song she sang she sang so sweet[00:00:57]

No answer at all could I say[00:01:02]

Till our gallant ship she swung round about[00:01:06]

Which made our poor hearts to ache[00:01:11]

Then up stepped the helmsman of our ship[00:01:35]

In his hand a lead and line[00:01:39]

For to sound the seas so wide and so deep[00:01:42]

No hard rock or sand could he find[00:01:47]

Up stepped the captain of our ship[00:01:51]

And a well-speaking man is he[00:01:56]

He says I have a wife in fair Plymouth town[00:02:00]

This night and a widow she'll be[00:02:04]

Up stepped the bosun of our ship[00:02:08]

And a well-spoken man was he[00:02:13]

He says I have two sons in fair Bristol town[00:02:17]

And orphans I fear they will be[00:02:21]

And then up stepped our cabin boy[00:02:26]

And a fine pretty boy was he[00:02:30]

He says oh I grieve for my mother dear[00:02:34]

Whom I shall never more see[00:02:38]

Last night last night when the moon shone bright[00:03:00]

My mother she had sons five[00:03:04]

But now she may look in the salt salt sea[00:03:08]

And find but one alive[00:03:13]

Call for boats call for boats my fair Plymouth boys[00:03:17]

Do you hear how the trumpets sound[00:03:21]

For the want of a long-boat in the ocean we're lost[00:03:25]

And most of our merry men drowned[00:03:30]
