lirik lagu the bramble briar – a. l. lloyd
in bruton town lived a rich merchant
who had two sons and one daughter dear
by day and night they was so deluded
they filled their sister’s heart with fear
one night, one night, a restless slumber
this brother rose up from his bed
he heard a servant court his sister
he heard they had a mind to wed
he told his secret unto no other
but to his brother he told it to
“i’ll put an end to all their courting
i’ll send him silent to his doom.”
they early rosе the very next morning
‘a*hunting through thе woods they go
and there they did this young man murder
in the bramble briar, his body they threw
“dear brothers, brothers, why do you whisper?
pray, what’s become of that serving man?”
“we’ve lost him where we’ve been ‘a*hunting
we’ve lost him where he’ll never be found.”
she went to bed ‘a*crying and lamenting
lamenting for her own true love
she slept, she dreamed she had him by her
covered all o’er in a gore of blood
“don’t weep for me, my own dear jewel
don’t weep for me, no, don’t you pine
‘twas your two brothers did treat me cruel
in the bramble briar, my body you’ll find.”
she early rose the very next morning
‘a*hunting through the woods did go
and there she found her own dear jewel
in the bramble briar where his body was thrown
she pulled her handkerchief from her pocket
to wipe his eyes that he could not see
and all to keep him from the sun
she plucked the green leaves off the tree
three days and nights she did stay by him
she thought her heart would break with woe
“now cruel hunger creeps upon me
and along with you in the grave i’ll go.”
three days and nights she did stay by him
she thought her heart would break with woe
“now cruel hunger creeps upon me
and along with you in death i’ll go.”
