《The Plains of Waterloo》歌词

[00:00:00] Plains Of Waterloo - Kate Rusby

[00:00:13] Come all you loyal lovers I pray you to draw near

[00:00:22] To listen to verse or two I mean to let you hear

[00:00:28] In the praises of a worthy youth who's honest fair and true

[00:00:36] Who fought through Spain and Portugal and fell at Waterloo

[00:00:44] The young man that I sing about is proper tall and trim

[00:00:51] His body like the wax work there's few could equal him

[00:00:58] His cheeks they were a rosy-red his eyes the deep dark blue

[00:01:06] With my charming fair none could compare on the Plains of Waterloo

[00:01:27] When the fight was at its fiercest they fought with hearts and will

[00:01:35] When guns did loudly rattle and shot and shell did kill

[00:01:42] My love he fell a victim 'mongst the thousands that they slew

[00:01:50] Far from his own to hear him moan on the Plains of Waterloo

[00:01:58] My love he lay the whole night long my love he lay in pain

[00:02:05] When the war was spread he raised his head and daylight came again

[00:02:12] When that his comrades found him 'mongst the thousands that they slew

[00:02:20] He discoursed my love and hour or more on the Plains of Waterloo

[00:02:57] "Farewell my comrades likewise my sweetheart "

[00:03:06] These were the very words he said and then he did depart

[00:03:12] They dug my love a silent grave the tears they were not few

[00:03:20] And they laid him in the cold clay on the Plains of Waterloo

[00:03:30] Although he's gone and left me no other will I take

[00:03:36] Through lonesome woods and shady groves I wander for his sake

[00:03:43] Through lonesome woods and shady groves I'll wander through and through

[00:03:51] And I'll mourn for him that's dead upon the Plains of Waterloo
