Lyrics to The Blacksmith
The Blacksmith Video:
I A blacksmith courted me, nine month and better he fairly won my heart he wrote me a letter with his hammer in his hand, he looked so clever and if I was with my love, I would live forever! II Oh but where has my love gone! with his cheeks like roses and his big, black billy cap on, decked around with primroses I'm afraid the scorching sun will shine and burn his beauty and if I was with my love, I would do my duty III Strange news has come to town strange news is carried strange news cried up and down my love ist married! I wish them both much joy though they can't hear me and may God reward them well, for the slighting of me IV Do you remember when you lay beside me? and you said you'd marry me and you'd ne'ver deny me if I said I'd marry you, it was only for to try you so bring your witness love, and I'll never deny you. V Ah witness have I none save God Almighty! and may he reward you well for the slighting of me her lips grew pale and wan which made her poor heart tremble to think she love'd a man, who had proved deceitful! ------------------------------------------------- Eine junge Frau läßt sich von einem tollen Mann, einen Schmied verführen, er verspricht ihr die Ehe und sie nie im Stich zu lassen. Doch bald danach hört sie, er ist verheiratet.als sie ihn zur Rede stellt, erklärt er, es war nur Gerede um sie zu verführen, sie wendet sich im gebet an Gott und bittet ihn, Gerechtigkeit zu üben
