[00:00:00] Standing Stones - Loreena McKennitt (罗琳娜·麦肯尼特)

[00:00:38] Music by Loreena McKennitt

[00:00:43] Lyrics traditional, arr. by Loreena McKennitt

[00:00:53] In one of these lonely Orkney Isles

[00:00:56] There dwelled a maiden fair.

[00:01:00] Her cheeks were red, her eyes were blue

[00:01:03] She had yellow curling hair.

[00:01:07] Which caught the eye and then the heart

[00:01:11] Of one who could never be

[00:01:14] A lover of so true a maid

[00:01:18] Or fair a form as she.

[00:01:23] Across the lake in Sandwick

[00:01:26] Dwelled a youth she held most true,

[00:01:30] And ever since her infancy

[00:01:34] He had watched those eyes so blue.

[00:01:37] The land runs out into the sea -

[00:01:41] It's a narrow neck of land -

[00:01:44] Where weird and grim the Standing Stones

[00:01:48] In a circle where they stand.

[00:02:08] One bonny moonlight Christmas Eve

[00:02:12] They met at that sad place

[00:02:15] With her heart in glee and the beams of love

[00:02:19] Were shining on her face.

[00:02:22] When her lover came and he grasped her hand

[00:02:26] What loving words they said.

[00:02:29] They talked of future's happy days

[00:02:33] As through the stones they strayed.

[00:02:38] They walked toward the lovers' stone

[00:02:42] And through it passed their hands.

[00:02:45] They plighted there a constant troth

[00:02:49] Sealed by love's steadfast bands.

[00:02:52] He kissed his maid and then he watched her

[00:02:56] That lonely bridge go o'er.

[00:02:59] For little, little did he think

[00:03:03] He wouldn't see his darling more.

[00:03:08] Standing Stones of the Orkney Isles

[00:03:12] Gazing out to sea

[00:03:15] Standing Stones of the Orkney Isles

[00:03:19] Bring my love to me.

[00:03:37] He turned his face toward his home

[00:03:41] That home he did never see.

[00:03:44] And you shall have the story

[00:03:48] As it was told to me.

[00:03:51] When a form upon him sprang

[00:03:54] With a dagger gleaming bright,

[00:03:58] It pierced his heart and dying screams

[00:04:01] Disturbed the silent night.

[00:04:41] This maid had nearly reached her home

[00:04:45] When she was startled by a cry.

[00:04:48] She turned to look around her

[00:04:51] And her love was standing by,

[00:04:55] His hand was pointing to the stars

[00:04:58] His eyes glazed at the light,

[00:05:02] And with a smiling countenance

[00:05:05] He vanished from her sight.

[00:05:10] She quickly turned and home she ran

[00:05:14] Not a word of this was said,

[00:05:17] For well she knew at seeing his form

[00:05:21] That her faithful love was dead.

[00:05:24] And from that day she pined away,

[00:05:28] Not a smile seen on her face.

[00:05:31] With outstretched arms she went to meet him

[00:05:35] In a brighter place.

[00:05:40] Standing Stones of the Orkney Isles

[00:05:43] Gazing out to sea

[00:05:47] Standing Stones of the Orkney Isles

[00:05:50] Bring my love to me.

[00:05:53] Standing Stones of the Orkney Isles

[00:05:57] Gazing out to sea

[00:06:00] Standing Stones of the Orkney Isles

[00:06:03] Bring my love to me.

[00:06:53] END
