letra de blackbirds and thrushes - judith weir
as i was a-walking
for my recreation
as down by the gardens
i silently strayed
i heard a young maid
making great lamentation
crying
jimmy will be slain in the wars, i’m afraid
jimmy will be slain in the wars, i’m afraid
the blackbirds and thrushes
sang in the green bushes
the wood-doves and larks
seemed to mourn for the maid;
and this is the song
that they sang all around her
they sang:
jimmy will be slain in the wars, i’m afraid
jimmy will be slain in the wars, i’m afraid
when jimmy returned
with a flag on his coffin
they laid his poor body
all dead in his grave;
she cried, i’m forsaken
my poor heart is broken
would that he had nevеr left his fair maid
would that he had nevеr left his fair maid
the blackbirds and thrushes
sang in the green bushes
the wood-doves and larks
seemed to mourn for her:
o would that he had never left!
would that he had never left . .
