《The Lily of the West》歌词

[00:00:40] When first I came to Ireland some pleasure for to find

[00:00:50] It's there I spied a damsel fair most pleasing to my mind

[00:00:59] Her rosy cheeks and sparkling eyes like arrows pierced my breast

[00:01:09] And they call her lovely Molly O the lily of the west

[00:01:19] One day as I was walking down by a shady grove

[00:01:29] I spied a lord of high degree conversing with my love

[00:01:39] She sang her song delightfully while I was sore oppressed

[00:01:48] Saying I bid adieu to Molly O the lily of the west

[00:02:09] Well I stepped up with my rapier and my dagger in my hand

[00:02:19] And I dragged him from my false love and boldly did bid him stand

[00:02:29] But being mad with desperation I swore I'd pierce his breast

[00:02:39] I was then deceived by Molly O the lily of the west

[00:03:29] I then did stand my trial and boldly I did plea

[00:03:39] A flaw was in my indictment found and that soon had me free

[00:03:49] That beauty bright I did adore the judge did her address

[00:03:58] Now go you faithless Molly O the lily of the west

[00:04:09] Now that I've gained my liberty a-roaming and I will go

[00:04:18] I'll ramble through old Ireland and travel Scotland over

[00:04:28] Though she thought to swear my life away she still disturbs my rest

[00:04:38] I still must style her Molly O the lily of the west
