[00:00:00] The Blantyre Explosion - An Cat Dubh

[00:00:00] Written by：Traditional

[00:00:00] By Clyde's bonny banks

[00:00:04] As I sadly did wander

[00:00:10] Among the peat heaps

[00:00:14] As evening drew nigh

[00:00:20] I spied a fair maiden

[00:00:24] A drees in the morning

[00:00:30] Weeping and wailing

[00:00:33] With many a sigh

[00:00:38] I stepped up beside her

[00:00:43] And thus I addressed her

[00:00:49] Pray tell me fair maid

[00:00:52] Of your sorrow and pain

[00:00:58] Sobbing and sighing

[00:01:02] She sadly did answer

[00:01:08] Johnny Murphy kind sir

[00:01:11] Was my true lover's name

[00:01:16] Twenty one years of age

[00:01:20] Full of youth and good looking

[00:01:26] To work down the mines

[00:01:30] To high blantyre he came

[00:01:35] The wedding was fixed

[00:01:39] All the guests were invited

[00:01:45] That calm summers evening

[00:01:49] My Johnny was slain

[00:01:54] The explosion was heard

[00:01:58] By the women and children

[00:02:04] With pale anxious faces

[00:02:08] They around to the mine

[00:02:13] When the news was made known

[00:02:17] All the hills rang with their moaning

[00:02:23] Three hundred and ten

[00:02:26] Scoties miners were slying

[00:02:32] So husbands and sweethearts and sister and brothers

[00:02:42] That blantyre explosion

[00:02:45] You sould never forget

[00:02:51] And all you young miners

[00:02:55] Who hear my sad story

[00:03:01] Remember your congrates

[00:03:05] Who laid at their rest
