Luyện nghe bài hát Matty Groves

A holiday, a holiday, and the one of the year.
Lord darnell's came into church, the gospel for to hear.

And the meeting it was done, she cast her eyes about,
And she saw little matty groves, walking in the crowd.

home with me, little matty groves, come home with me tonight.
Come home with me, little matty groves, and sleep me till light.''

``oh, I can't come home, I come home and sleep with you tonight,
By the rings on your fingers I can tell you are darnell's wife.''

``what if I am lord darnell's wife? darnell's not at home.
For he is out in the far cornfields, bringing the home.''

And a who was standing by and hearing what was said,
He swore lord darnell he would before the sun would set.

And in his hurry to carry the news, he bent his and ran,
And when he came to the mill stream, he took off his shoes and swam.

Little matty groves, he lay down and took a sleep.
When he awoke, lord he was standing at his feet.

Saying ``how do you like my bed? and how do you like my sheets?
How do you like my lady who in your arms asleep? ''

``oh, well I your feather bed, and well I like your sheets.
But I like your lady gay who lies in my arms asleep.''

``well, get up, get up,'' lord darnell cried, up as quick as you can!
It'll never be said in fair that I slew a naked man.''

``oh, I can't get up, I won't get up, I get up for my life.
For you two long beaten swords and I not a pocket-knife.''

``well it's true I have two beaten swords, and cost me deep in the purse.
But you will the better of them and I will have the worse.''

``and you strike the very first blow, and strike it like a man.
I will strike the very next blow, and kill you if I can.''

So matty struck the very first blow, and he hurt darnell sore.
Lord struck the very next blow, and matty struck no more.

And lord darnell he took his wife and he sat her on his knee,
Saying, ``who do you the best of us, matty groves or me? ''

And then up spoke his own wife, never heard to speak so free.
``i'd rather a kiss from dead matty's lips you and your finery.''

darnell he jumped up and loudly he did bawl,
He struck his wife right through the heart and her against the wall.

``a grave, a grave!'' darnell cried, ``to put these lovers in.
But bury my lady at the top for she was of kin.''
