lirik lagu cheri knight - dar glasgow
[verse]
i lie in the shade of the sourwood tree
hidden from all passers~by
read not the words on this marble white stone
that tell of this sad life of mine
i ran in the starlight, the starlight so blue
the deepest one by my side
i was the maid by whom others were measured
for always spilled over the line
good morning fine ladies, good morning again
let me warm my cold hands
gather around and let your milk down
fill my silver bucket again
[chorus]
for all life’s riches, fleeting and gone
i had a silent yearning so strong
the wail of the nightjar is a sad reverie
but their beating hearts are music to me
[verse]
he asked me to marry and he knelt in the straw
oh but i could not marry
i was wedded to those in the valley below
who gave their milk only to me
with the days of the summer my life ebbed away
many took pity on me
that the nectar they gave til the end of my time
was sweet as a cup of may wine
[chorus]
for all life’s riches, fleeting and gone
i had a silent yearning so strong
my siver bucket never die shine
but carried a nectar as sweet as may wine
as sweet as may wine
[outro]
the nectar they gave til the end of my time
was sweet as a cup of may wine
sweet as a cup of may wine
sweet as a cup of may wine
