Letra
Have you heard of the blind harper? How he lived in Lochmaben town? How he went down to fair England To steal King Henry's wanton brown? First he went unto his wife With all the haste that go could he "This work," he said, "It will never go well Without the help of our good grey mare" Says she, "You take the good grey mare She'll run o'er hills both low and high Go take the halter in your hose And leave the foal at home with me" So he is up to England gonе He went as fast as go could he And whеn he got to Carlisle gates Who should be there but King Henry? "Come in, come in, you blind harper And of your music let me hear" But up and says the blind harper "I'd rather have a stable for my mare" The king he looks over his left shoulder And he says unto his stable groom "Go take the poor blind harper's mare And put her beside my wanton brown" Then he's harped and then he sang Till he played them all so sound asleep And quietly he took off his shoes And down the stairs he did creep And straight to the stable door he goes With a tread so light as light could be And when he opened and went in There he found thirty steeds and three And he took the halter from his hose And from his purse he did not fail He slipped it over the wanton's nose And he's tied it to the grey mare's tail Then he let her loose at the castle gates And the mare didn't fail to find her way She's back to her own colt foal Three long hours before the day So then in the morning, at fair daylight When they had ended all their cheer Behold the wanton brown has gone And so has the poor blind harper’s mare "And oh and alas," says the blind harper "However alas that I come here In Scotland I've got me a little colt foal In England they've stolen my good grey mare" "Hold your tongue," says King Henry "And all your mournings let them be For you shall get a far better mare And well paid shall your colt foal be" Again he harped and again he sang Sweet was the music he let them hear He was paid for a foal that he never had lost And three times over for the good grey mare
