lirik lagu the blantyre explosion – jon raven
by clyde’s bonny banks where i sadly did wander
among the pit heaps as evening drew nigh
oh, i spied a fair maiden all dressed in deep mourning
weeping and wailing, with many a sigh
well, i stepped up beside her, and thus i addressed her
“pray tell me, fair maid, of your trouble and pain.”
well, sobbing and sighing, at last, she did answer
“johnny murphy, kind sir, was my true lover’s name
“twenty*one years of age, full of youth and good looking
to work down the mine from high blantyre he came
oh, the wedding was fixed, all the guests were invited
that calm summer’s evening, young johnny was slain
“oh, the explosion was heard, all the women and children
with pale anxious faces did haste to the mine
when the truth was made known, the hills rang with their mourning
three*hundred*and*ten young miners were slain
“now husbands and wives, oh, and sweethearts and brothers
that blantyre explosion, they’ll never forget
and all you young miners that hear my sad story
shed a tear for the victims who’re laid to their rest.”
