Luyện nghe bài hát Anachie Gordon

(traditional song)

[Performed sometimes at concerts]

Harking is bonny and lives my love
My lies on him and will not remove
It will not remove ohh for all that I have
Ohh I never forget me love Anachie
For Gordon he's bonny and he's rough
He'd any woman that ever he saw
entice any woman and so he has done me
O I never will me love Anachie

Down her father and he's standing by the door
Jeannie your trying the tricks of a whore
You care nothing for a man who cares so much for thee
You must marry Sultan and leave Anachie
For Anachie he's barely but a man
he may be pretty but where are his lands
O the Sultan's lands are and his towers they are high
You must marry Sultan and leave Anachie

With Anachie I'd beg for my bread
And before I'll marry Sultan it's gold to my
With gold to my head and fringed to the knee
And I'll die if I don't get me love
And you are my parents to church you may me bring
But unto Sultan I'll never bear a son
To a son or a daughter I'll bow my knee
And die if I don't get me love Anachie

Jeannie was married and church she was brought home
And when she and her maidens so should have been
When she and her so merry should have been
She went her chamber, she cried all alone

Come to bed now me honey and my sweet
For the style you my mistress it be so sweet
Being mistress or Jeannie it's all the to me
But in your bed Lord Sultan I will lie
And down came her father and he's with reknown
Saying you are her maidens go loosen off her gowns
But she fell to the floor so close down by his knee
Saying father look I'm for me love Anachie

The day married was the day that Jeannie died
And the day that young Anachie home on the tide
And down came her maidens all wringing of hands
Saying Lord it's so long you've spent so long on the sands
Ohh so on the sands, o so long upon the flood
have married your Jeannie and now she lies dead.

You are her maidens come take me by the hand
And take me to the chamber that me love she in
And he's kissed her cold lips 'til his heart has to stone
And he's died in the chamber that his love she in.
