lirik lagu fay hield - the shepherd's daughter
it’s of a shepherd’s daughter tending sheep on yonder hill
a roving blade came a~riding by and swore he’d have his will
“if you should have your will of me, pray tell to me your name
so when my baby it is born i might call him the same.”
“oh some they call me jack,” he said, “and some they call me john
but when i’m in the king’s own court, my name is sweet william.”
he mounted on his milk white stead and away from her did ride;
she’s lifted up her petticoats and run close by his side
she ran till she came to the riverside, she fell on her belly and swam;
she swam till she came to the other side, took to her heels and ran
she ran till she came to the king’s own court and boldly pulled the ring
and none were so ready but the king himself to let this fair maid in
“what brings you here, my pretty fair maid, what brings you here?”, says he
“it’s of a knight in your own court this day has robbed me.”
“what has he robbed you of, fair maid, has he stolen all your fee?”
“no he’s robbed me of my maidenhead that my mother has give to me.”
“well if he be a married man then it’s hanged he shall be
but if he be a single man, his body i’ll give to thee.”
and he called down his merry men all by one, by two, by three
sweet william he came last of all when first he used to be
and he pulled out a handful of gold, he put it all in a glove
“take this, take this, my pretty fair miss, go seek for another true love.”
“oh i’ll not have any of your gold nor any of your fee
but i will take your sweet body that the king has granted me.”
he mounted on a milk white stead and she upon another;
they rode along the king’s highway like sister and like brother
they rode till they came to the first fair town, he bought her a g~y gold ring
and when they got to the next fair town, he gave her a g~y wedding
“well i wish i were drinking a bath of water instead of drinking wine
before an old shepherd’s daughter would have been a bride of mine
i wish i were drinking white wine instead of drinking red
before an old shepherd’s daughter would bring me to my wedding bed.”
