Such bloody engagements

Еще английский фолк - Eliza Carthy, Bold Privateer (альбом Anglicana)

(В Rogue's Ballads она поет песню Rolling Sea)

Bold Privateer - mp3 8,5 Mb, зарарено для тех, кто захочет тянуть это с работы.

Песня длится 7 минут 10 секунд и поется заунывно и душевынимательно, предполагая впадение слушателя в полный ступор. Со мной это всегда работает, а вас я предупредила.

Our boat, she's on a drift
And our ship, she's on the waves
Farewell my dearest jewel
For no longer can I stay

|: Our ship, she lies awaiting
So fare you well, my dear
For I must go on board
Of this bold privateer :|

There's no-one there can tell you
What great hazards you will run
So many have been slain
Since the wars first begun

|: Such bloody engagements
And dangers that draw near
With loss of their sweet lives
In this bold privateer :|


Grieve not, my dearest jewel
When I'm out of your sweet sight
For I must go on board
And so boldly I will fight

|: We'll beat down the pride
Of the lofty monaseer*
And soon we'll let them know
She's a bold privateer :|

Then since you are a-going
May heaven kinder be
May kind heaven protect you
By land or by sea

|: May kind heaven protect you
Wherever you may steer
And send you safe home back
From this bold privateer :|

The prizes we have taken
Are from France and from Spain
And my true love at home
Will have part of them the same

|: And when the wars are over
I'll turn unto my dear
And then I'll bid adieu
To this bold privateer :|

Oh, when the wars are over
I'll turn unto my dear
And then I'll bid adieu
To this bold privateer

ОК :)
Просто у меня уже такое ощущение, что песни что-то никто и не слушает...
