Luyện nghe bài hát Anachie Gordon

(traditional song)

[Performed live at concerts]

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

came her father and he's standing by the door
Saying Jeannie 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 Gordon he's barely but a man
Although he may be but where are his lands
O the Sultan's are broad and his towers they are high
You must marry Sultan and leave Anachie

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

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

Come to bed now Jeannie me honey and my
For the you my mistress it would be so sweet
Being or Jeannie it's all the same to me
But in your bed Lord Sultan I never lie
And down came her father and he's spoken with
Saying you that are her maidens go loosen off her
But she fell down to the floor so close by his knee
Saying look I'm dying for me love Anachie

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

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