the blacksmith - trú (ni) lyrics

[verse 1]
a blacksmith courted me
nine months and better
he fairly won my heart
wrote me a letter
with his hammer in his hand
he looked so clever
and if i was with him now
i would live forever

[verse 2]
but where is my love gone
with his cheeks like roses
and his good black billyc*ck on
decked around with primroses
i fear the shining sun
may burn and scorch his beauty
and if i was with my love
i would do my duty

[verse 3]
strange news is come to town
strange news is carried
strange news flies up and down
that my love is married
i wish them both much joy
though they can’t hear me
and may god reward him well
for the slighting of me
[verse 4]
don’t you remember when
you lay beside me
and you said you’d marry me
and not deny me
if i said i’d marry you
it was only for to try you
so bring your witness love
and i’ll not deny you

[verse 5]
no, witness have i none
save god almighty
and may he reward you well
for the slighting of me
her lips grew pale and wan
it made a poor heart tremble
to think she loved a one
and he proved deceitful
