《Tam Lin》歌词

[00:00:01] Tam Lin - Steeleye Span

[00:00:15] Oh I forbid you maidens all

[00:00:18] That wear gold in your hair

[00:00:21] To come or go by Carterhaugh

[00:00:24] For young Tam Lin is there

[00:00:27] If you go by Carterhaugh

[00:00:30] You must leave him a wad

[00:00:34] Either your rings or green mantle

[00:00:36] Or else your maidenhead

[00:00:40] She's away o'er gravel green

[00:00:43] And o'er the gravel brown

[00:00:47] She's away to Carterhaugh

[00:00:49] To flour herself a gown

[00:00:53] She had not pulled a rosy rose

[00:00:56] A rose but barely one

[00:00:59] When by came this brisk young man

[00:01:02] Says lady let alone

[00:01:06] How dare you pull my rose Madam

[00:01:09] How dare you break my tree

[00:01:12] How dare you come to Carter Hall

[00:01:15] Without the leave of me

[00:01:18] Well may I pull the rose she said

[00:01:21] Well may I break the tree

[00:01:24] For Carter Haugh it my father's

[00:01:27] I'll ask no leave of thee

[00:01:31] Oh in Carterhaugh in Carterhaugh

[00:01:37] Oh in Carterhaugh in Carterhaugh

[00:01:50] He's taken her by the milk-white hand

[00:01:53] And there he's laid her down

[00:01:56] And there he asked no leave of her

[00:01:59] As she lay on the ground

[00:02:03] Oh tell me tell me then she said

[00:02:05] Oh tell me who art thee

[00:02:09] My name it is Tam Lin he said

[00:02:12] And this is my story

[00:02:15] As it fell out upon a day

[00:02:18] A-hunting I did ride

[00:02:21] There came a wind out of the north

[00:02:25] And pulled me betide

[00:02:28] And drowsy drowsy as I was

[00:02:31] The sleep upon me fell

[00:02:34] The Queen of Fairies she was there

[00:02:37] And took me to herself

[00:02:40] Oh in Carterhaugh in Carterhaugh

[00:02:46] Oh in Carterhaugh in Carterhaugh

[00:03:43] At the end of every seven years

[00:03:46] They pay a tithe to Hell

[00:03:50] And I'm so fair and full of flesh

[00:03:53] I'm feared 'twill be myself

[00:03:56] Tonight it is good Hallowe'en

[00:03:59] The fairy court will ride

[00:04:02] And if you would your true love win

[00:04:05] At Miles Cross you must bide

[00:04:08] Oh in Carterhaugh in Carterhaugh

[00:04:14] Oh in Carterhaugh in Carterhaugh

[00:04:21] Oh in Carterhaugh in Carterhaugh

[00:04:42] Gloomy was the night

[00:04:47] And eerie was the way

[00:04:51] This lady in her green mantle

[00:04:55] To Miles Cross she did go

[00:05:00] With the holy water in her hand

[00:05:04] She cast the compass round

[00:05:09] At twelve o'clock the fairy court

[00:05:13] Came riding o'er the mound

[00:05:18] First came by the black steed

[00:05:21] And then came by the brown

[00:05:26] Then Tam Lin on the milk-white steed

[00:05:31] With a gold star in his crown

[00:05:35] She's pulled him down into her arms

[00:05:40] And let the bridle fall

[00:05:44] The Queen of Fairy she cried out

[00:05:48] Young Tam Lin is away

[00:05:52] They've shaped him in her arms

[00:05:57] Into an roaring snake

[00:06:01] She's held him fast and feared him not

[00:06:06] To be her lovely mate

[00:06:10] They've shaped him in her arms again

[00:06:15] Fire burning bold

[00:06:18] She's held him fast and feared him not

[00:06:23] Till he was iron cold

[00:06:27] They've shaped him in her arms

[00:06:31] To a wood black beast so wild

[00:06:36] She's held him fast and feared him not

[00:06:40] The father of her child

[00:06:45] They've shaped him in her arms at last

[00:06:49] Into a naked man

[00:06:53] She's wrapped him in the green mantle

[00:06:58] And knew that she had him won

[00:07:28] The Queen of Fairies she cried out

[00:07:32] Young Tam Lin is away

[00:07:52] Had I known had I known Tam Lin

[00:08:08] Long before long before you came from home

[00:08:20] Had I known I would have taken out your heart

[00:08:27] And put in a heart of stone

[00:08:50] Had I known had I known Tam Lin

[00:09:04] That a lady a lady would steal thee

[00:09:14] Had I known I would have taken out your eyes

[00:09:23] And put into a rowan tree

[00:09:46] Had I known had I known Tam Lin

[00:10:02] That I would lose that I would lose the day

[00:10:12] Had I known I would have paid my tithe to hell

[00:10:19] Before you'd been won away
