The Blind Harper - Kate Rusby[00:00:00]

Have you heard of the blind harper[00:00:06]

Now he lived in Hogmaven town[00:00:09]

He went down to fair England[00:00:12]

To steal King Henry's wanton Brown [00:00:15]

First he went unto his wife[00:00:18]

With all the haste as go could he[00:00:20]

This work he said will never go well[00:00:23]

Without the help of our good grey mare [00:00:26]

Said she you take the good grey mare[00:00:30]

She'll run o'er hills both low and high[00:00:33]

Go take the halter in your hose[00:00:36]

And leave the foal at home with me [00:00:39]

He's up and went to England gone[00:00:42]

He went as fast as go could he[00:00:45]

And when he got to Carlisle gates[00:00:48]

Who should be there but King Henry [00:00:50]

Come in come in you blind harper[00:00:55]

And of your music let me hear[00:00:57]

But up and said the blind harper[00:01:01]

I'd rather have a stable for my mare [00:01:03]

The king looked over his left shoulder[00:01:08]

And he said unto his stable groom[00:01:10]

Go take the poor blind harper's mare[00:01:13]

And put her beside my wanton brown [00:01:15]

Then he's harped and then he sang[00:01:40]

Til he played them all so sound asleep[00:01:43]

And quietly he took off his shoes[00:01:46]

And down the stairs he did creep [00:01:49]

Straight to the stable door he's gone[00:01:53]

With a tread so light as light could be[00:01:55]

When he opened and went in[00:01:59]

He found thirty steeds and three [00:02:01]

He took the halter from his horse[00:02:06]

And from his purse he did not fail[00:02:08]

He slipped it over the wanton's nose[00:02:11]

And tied it to the grey mare's tail [00:02:13]

Then he let her loose at the castle gates[00:02:18]

She didn't fail to find her way[00:02:20]

She went back to her own colt foal[00:02:23]

Three long hours before the day [00:02:26]

Then in the morning at fair daylight[00:02:31]

When they had ended all their cheer[00:02:33]

Behold the wantong brown had gone[00:02:36]

So had the poor blind harper's mare [00:02:39]

Oh Alas said the blind harper[00:02:43]

Ever als that I came here[00:02:45]

In Scotland I've got a little colt foal[00:02:48]

In England they stole my good grey mare [00:02:51]

Hold your tongue said King Henry[00:03:06]

And all your mournings let them be[00:03:08]

You shall get a far better mare[00:03:11]

And well paid shall our colt foal be [00:03:14]

Again he harped and again he sang[00:03:18]

The sweetest music he let them hear[00:03:21]

He was paid for a foal that he never lost[00:03:24]

And three times worth the good grey mare [00:03:27]

He was paid for a foal that he never lost[00:03:38]

And three times worth the good grey mare[00:03:40]
