lirik lagu victor herbert - the song of the bagpipes

Loading...

an english laird, he loved a lass
but she replied to him, bold as brass
“i’ll wed nane of yer lowland class
’cause ye don’t love the bagpipes.”
then quoth the laird, “for your sweet sake
i’ll scottish music lessons take
my ears may ache, my ears may break
but i shall learn the bagpipes.”

and so he got a piper lad to play with all his might
that piper laddie played all day and far into the night
e~ah! e~ah! e~ah!

though pale and calm that laird began
right soon to howl and yell
“help! help!” he cried, “ye heav’nly pow’rs against the pow’rs of h~ll”
he shouted “welcome, stake or rack, come torturers, burn and hack
but i shall be a maniac with these infernal bagpipes.”

for many days he tossed and groaned
the while that hireling piper droned
at last one day he feebly moaned
“at last i love the bagpipes.”
so then to that scotch girl he creeps;
her promise true to him she keeps
and now that laird, he eats and sleeps
to music of the bagpipes
his seven children play the pipes, his servants play as well
his wife’s relations play all day. the laird he plays himsel’
e~ah! e~ah! e~ah!

whene’er he hears a piper play
he gibbers in his glee
he sings and dances at the sound in highland ecstasy
and now that english lord knows why scotch fight and death defy
for why should heroes fear to die who do no’ fear the bagpipes?
