Testo Willie Lennox - Dervish
Testo della canzone Willie Lennox (Dervish), tratta dall'album Playing With Fire
It was early one morning, Willie Lennox rose
And straight to his cousin's bedchamber he goes
Saying, "Arise, lovely cousin, and let no one know
'Tis a fine summer's morning, to the glens let us go"
As Willie and his cousin went down the long lane
They met Sergeant Henry and Colonel MacLean
Said the Colonel, "Do not enter, do not venture in
For there's deep and false waters in Loch Inshulin"
But Willie being stout-hearted, in he did go
He swam to an island which was his overthrow
He swam it twice over, and was turning around
And in a few minutes, Willie Lennox was drowned
Small boats they were lowered, long lines were let down
And in a few minutes, Willie Lennox was found
There was an old woman been there standing by
She ran to his mother, and this she did cry
"Sad news I have for you, which grieves my heart sore
For your own dear Willie, his name is no more"
And as for Willie's true love, who mourns night and day
For the loss of her true love, who lies cold in the clay
For both morning and evening, he did her salute
With the pink and red roses, and the garden fruit
All gathered together, and stood in the ring
While the orange and purple around them did hang
They all whispered lowly, and raised up their hands
Saying, "Boys, while you're living, beware of the ban"
