lirik lagu ellie bryan - sheath and knife
it is talk the whole world over
the king’s daughter goes with child to her brother
go down to the broom no more
he brought his sister to the deer park
brought his bow, and arrow fastened to his back
go down to the broom no more
she said ‘oh, brother, oh, brother when you hear me cry
shoot your arrow there, and let me die.’
go down to the broom no more
‘and when you see that i am lying dead
bury me in the dirt up to my head.’
go down to the broom no more
and when he heard his sister cry
his silver arrow he did let fly
go down to the broom no more
and he dug a grave that was long, and deep
and he buried his sister, with her babe at his feet
go down to the broom no more
and when he’s come to his father’s hall
there was music, and dancing, and minstrels and all
go down to the broom no more
he said ‘son, oh son what makes you so sad
at such a meeting you might be glad.’
go down to the broom no more
he said ‘father, oh, father i have lost a knife
i loved as dear as my own life.’
go down to the broom no more
‘and i have lost a finer thing
i’ve lost the sheath that the knife was in.’
go down to the broom no more
he said ‘hold your tongue, and make no din
i’ll you buy you sheath, and a knife therein.’
go down to the broom no more
‘but all the ships that ever sailed the sea
won’t bring such a sheath and a knife to me.’
go down to the broom no more
