Luyện nghe bài hát Anachie Gordon

(traditional song)

[Performed sometimes at concerts]

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

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

With Gordon I'd beg for my bread
And before I'll marry it's gold to my head
With gold to my head and gowns 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 never bow my
And I'll die if I don't get me Anachie

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

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

The day Jeannie married was the day that Jeannie
And the day that young Anachie home on the tide
And down came her maidens all wringing of hands
Saying Lord it's been so long spent so long on the sands
Ohh so on the sands, o so long upon the flood
They 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 her cold lips 'til his heart has turned to stone
And he's in the chamber that his love she lies in.
