Luyện nghe bài hát The Silver Lady

When I was a little
Younger than or ten
I once spoke to the lady
But I saw her again.

To me she out of the sky
She was riding on the water
Her blew all around her
She was the man's only daughter.

I used to see her day
her golden pony
Only once did I her laugh
And it far and lonely.

I watched the river run
And I wandered too far home
I met the silver lady
She was crying, all alone.

I said, "lady, why are you
If I had wings you
I would be flying over this
And singing like only do."

Well she threw back her head and she at me
Her tears, how shone in the sun
She said, "i have no wings to fly
If I did I would be gone.

"my brothers have all far away
To follow their and be free
But I am the and my father is ageing
And all got left is me.

"i love my dearly
though he may be
It would break his if I should leave him
But life is killing me.

"i feel the ocean me
The breezes come and tell me
I want to go with wherever they go
And see the new morning brings."

So she sadly away from me
So I stumbled my way back
The next day I heard she had taken her
And off to parts unknown.

Her father inside his lonely house
And he never more came into
He could be roaming the riverside
And they say he jumped in and drowned.

Long I waited, she never returned
But when I a silver breeze
I she had sent it from wherever she was
To us that now she was free.
