《Pretty Maid》歌词

[00:00:00] Pretty Maid - Clannad

[00:00:06] It was on a fine summer's morning

[00:00:12] The birds sweetly tune on each bough

[00:00:18] And as I walked out for my pleasure

[00:00:24] I saw a maid milking a cow

[00:00:30] Her voice was so enchanting melodious

[00:00:35] Left me quite unable to go

[00:00:41] My heart it was loaded with sorrow

[00:00:47] For the pretty maid milking her cow

[00:00:59] Then to her I made my advances

[00:01:05] "Good morrow most beautiful maid

[00:01:10] Your beauty my heart so entrances"

[00:01:16] "Pray sir do not banter " she said

[00:01:22] "I'm not such a rare precious jewel

[00:01:27] That I should enamour you so

[00:01:33] I am but a poor little milk girl "

[00:01:39] Says the pretty maid milking her cow

[00:01:51] The Indies afford no such jewel

[00:01:57] So bright so transparently clear

[00:02:03] I do not add things to my funeral

[00:02:08] Consent but to know me my dear

[00:02:14] Oh had I the Lamp of Aladdin

[00:02:20] Or the wealth that gold mines can bestow

[00:02:26] I'd rather be poor in a cottage

[00:02:32] With the pretty girl milking her cow
