lirik lagu frank harte - roger the miller
[verse 1]
oh young roger the miller came courtin’ of late
to a farmer’s fine daughter called beautiful kate
she had for her fortune oh many fine things
beautiful silks and gold, diamonds and rings
her father, he gave her a neat plot of ground
she had also a fortune, she had also a fortune of five hundred pounds
[verse 2]
when the money and supper, they were both laid down
well, it was a great sight to see five hundred pounds
and the sight of the money and bеauty likewise
it made rogеr’s heart greedy and dazzled his eyes
he says, “now that your money and daughter is there
’tis i will not have her, ’tis i will not have her, without that gray mare.”
[verse 3]
then the money and supper were taken from sight
and likewise young kathy, his own heart’s delight
and roger was taken and shown out the door
he was ordered not for to come there anymore
’twas then he did tear at his long yellow hair
saying, “i wish i had never, i wish i had never, spoke of that gray mare”
[verse 4]
now it was when six months, they were over and past
that young roger the miller, he met with this lass
“i think i do know you then, madam,” says he
“i am the same way with you, sir,” said she
“a man of your features with long yellow hair
he once came a~courting, he once came a~courting, my father’s gray mare”
[verse 5]
“well, it was not a~courting the gray mare i came
but you, my own jewel, my kathy by name
i thought that your father would never dispute
to give me the gray mare with you to boot
and not to risk lose such a dutiful son
but it’s now i am sorry, it’s now i am sorry, for what i have done”
[verse 6]
“for your sorrow, young roger, i have little regard
for there’s plenty fine men in this town to be had
if you forgot the gray mare, you’d be married, you see
but now you have neither the gray mare nor me
the price of that mare, it was never so great
so fare you well, roger, so fare you well, roger, you’re a sorrowful case”
[verse 7]
now young roger’s away to his desolate home
where he sighs as he sits there and sups all alone
and kathy, she sings, she is happy and gay
she has wed a young miller who works the long day
so lads, when you’re courting, be always aware
to court with the young maid, to court with the young maid and not her gray mare
