[00:00:00] Banks Of Claudy (Album Version) - Loreena McKennitt (罗琳娜·麦肯尼特)

[00:00:01] Written by：Traditional

[00:00:22] As I walked out one morning

[00:00:27] All in the month of May

[00:00:31] Down by a flower garden

[00:00:35] I carelessly did stray

[00:00:40] I overheard a young maid

[00:00:44] In sorrow did complain

[00:00:48] All for her absent lover

[00:00:53] Who plows the ranging main

[00:01:00] I boldly stepped up to her

[00:01:05] And put her in surprise

[00:01:09] I know she did not know me

[00:01:14] I being in disguise

[00:01:18] I says Me charming creature

[00:01:23] My joy my hearts delight

[00:01:27] How far have you to travel

[00:01:32] This dark and dreary night

[00:01:38] I'm in search of a faithless young man

[00:01:43] Johnny is his name

[00:01:47] And along the Banks of Claudy

[00:01:52] I'm told he does remain

[00:01:58] This is the Banks of Claudy

[00:02:03] Fair maid where on you stand

[00:02:07] But don't depend on Johnny

[00:02:11] For he's a false young man

[00:02:16] Oh don't depend on Johnny

[00:02:20] For he'll not meet you here

[00:02:24] But tarry with me in yon green woods

[00:02:29] No danger need you fear

[00:02:40] Oh it's six long weeks or better

[00:02:44] Since Johnny left the shore

[00:02:48] He's crossing the wild ocean

[00:02:53] Where the foam and the billows roar

[00:02:57] He's crossing the wild ocean

[00:03:02] For honour and for fame

[00:03:06] But this I've heard the ship was wrecked

[00:03:12] All on the coast of Spain

[00:03:31] Oh it's when she heard this dreadful news

[00:03:36] She flew into despair

[00:03:40] By the wringing of her milk white hands

[00:03:45] And the tearing of her hair

[00:03:49] Saying If Johnny he is drowned

[00:03:54] No man on earth I'll take

[00:03:59] But through lonesome groves and valleys

[00:04:04] I'll wander for his sake

[00:04:16] Oh it's when he saw her loyalty

[00:04:21] No longer could he stand

[00:04:25] He flew into her arms saying

[00:04:30] Betsy I'm the man

[00:04:34] Saying Betsy I'm the young man

[00:04:39] The 'cause of all your pain

[00:04:43] But since we've met on Claudy Banks

[00:04:49] We'll never part again
