lirik lagu frank harte - the finding of moses
[verse 1]
on egypt’s banks, contagious to the nile
the auld pharaoh’s daughter she went to bathe in style
she took her dip and she come unto the land
and to dry her royal pelt she ran along the strand
a bulrush tripped her, whereupon she saw
a smiling babby in a wad of straw
she took him up and says she in accents mild:
“taranagiers girls now, which of yis owns the child?”
[verse 2]
she took him up and she gave a little grin
for she and moses were standing in their skin
“oh bedad now” says she, “it was someone very rude
left a little babby by the river in his nude”
she took him to her auld lad sitting on the throne
“da,” says she, “will ye give the boy a home”
“bedad now,” says he, “sure i’ve often brought in worse
go me darling daughter and get the child a nurse.”
[verse 3]
an aul’ blackamoor woman among the crew
cried out, “ye royal savage, what’s that to do with you
your royal ladies is too meek and mild
to beget dishonestly this darling little child”
“ah then,” says pharaoh, “i’ll search every nook
from the phoenix park down to donnybrook
and when i catch hoult of the b~st~rd’s father
i will kick him from the nile down to the dodder.”
[verse 4]
oh they sent a bellman to the market square
to see if they could find the slavey there
but the only one now that they could find
was the little young one that left the child behind
she came up to pharaoh, a stranger mareyah!
never lettin’ on that she was the babby’s ma
and so little moses got his mammy back
shows that coincidence is a nut to crack
