The Lily of the West - The Chieftains (酋长乐队)[00:00:00]

When first I came to Ireland[00:00:40]

Some pleasure for to find[00:00:45]

It's there I spied a damsel fair[00:00:50]

Most pleasing to my mind[00:00:55]

Her rosy cheeks and sparkling eyes[00:01:00]

Like arrows pierced my breast[00:01:05]

And they call her lovely Molly O'[00:01:10]

The lily of the west[00:01:15]

One day as I was walking down[00:01:20]

By a shady grove[00:01:25]

I spied a lord of high degree[00:01:30]

Conversing with my love[00:01:35]

She sang her song delightfully[00:01:39]

While I was sore oppressed[00:01:44]

Saying I bid adieu to Molly O'[00:01:49]

The lily of the west[00:01:54]

Well I stepped up with my rapier[00:02:09]

And my dagger in my hand[00:02:14]

And I dragged him from my false love[00:02:19]

And boldly did bid him stand[00:02:24]

But being mad with desperation[00:02:29]

I swore I'd pierce his breast[00:02:34]

I was then deceived by Molly O'[00:02:39]

The lily of the west[00:02:44]

I then did stand my trial and boldly[00:03:29]

I did plea[00:03:36]

A flaw was in my indictment found[00:03:39]

And that soon had me free[00:03:44]

That beauty bright I did adore[00:03:49]

The judge did her address[00:03:54]

Now go you faithless Molly O'[00:03:59]

The lily of the west[00:04:04]

Now that I've gained my liberty a-roaming[00:04:09]

I will go[00:04:15]

I'll ramble through old Ireland[00:04:19]

And travel Scotland o'er[00:04:24]

Though she thought to swear my life away[00:04:29]

She still disturbs my rest[00:04:34]

I still must style her Molly O'[00:04:39]

The lily of the west[00:04:44]
