Lyrics The gypsy laddie Three gypsies cam tae our ho door. And oh, but they sang bonio. they sang sae sweet and sae complete. They charmed the heart o a Lady o. The lady she cam doon the stair. her twa hand maidens wae her o. Her sain as they spied her well-far'd face. They coost her glamer oer her o. They gave tae her the nutmeg fine. They gave tae her the ginger o. She's geen tae them a far better thing. The gowd rings ye aff her finger o. It's ye'll tak af yer silken goon. Pit on the tartan plaidie o. And gaen awa that lee lang night. Tae follow the gypsy Laddie o. So she's tone af her silken goon Put on her tartan plaidie o. and gaen awa that lee lang night. Tae follow the gypsy Laddie o. Lord Cassilis he came hame that night. Inquiring for his ladie o. One denied and the ither replied She is awa wi the gypsy Laddie o. So he rode east and he rode wast. Till he came tae yonder Bogio. There he spied the pretty young girl. Wi the gypsy stadin oroon her o. It's ye'll come back and back ye'll come. Ye'll come back, my Ladie o. Where I will niether eat nor drink For you come back aside me o. Oh widny come wi' you my honey in my head. Oh widny come wi' you my Davy o. Till I drank the brees, dry broon That's in tha water o Eerio. Last night I lay in a fine feather bed. I greet wither lord aside me o. The night I wid lie in a cold open field. Wi the gypsy's lyin aroon me o. There are sixteen o you and guid men. Nim more yer.... o! Bonnie o! And ye shall a hing at be For there stealin awa o ma Laddie o. end 訳詞のページに戻る |
