letra de the cruel brother - martin simpson
there were three knights from the west
ay the rose and the lily g-y
they have courted a lady fair
and the rose it blooms so sweetly oh
first of them was dressed in white
ay the rose and the lily g-y
he’s asked her to be his heart’s delight
and the rose it blooms so sweetly oh
the second of them was dressed in green
ay the rose and the lily g-y
he’s asked of her to be his queen
and the rosе it blooms so sweetly oh
the third of them was dressеd in red
ay the rose and the lily g-y
he’s asked of her, if he might wed
and the rose it blooms so sweetly oh
then you must ask my father the king
ay the rose and the lily g-y
you must ask my mother the queen
and the rose it blooms so sweetly oh
and you must ask my sister, anne
ay the rose and the lily g-y
but don’t forget my brother, john
and the rose it blooms so sweetly oh
he has asked her father, the king
ay the rose and the lily g-y
he has asked her mother, the queen
and the rose it blooms so sweetly oh
he has asked her sister, anne
ay the rose and the lily g-y
but he forgot her brother, john
and the rose it blooms so sweetly oh
her father lead them through the hall
ay the rose and the lily g-y
her mother, she danced before them all
and the rose it blooms so sweetly oh
her sister anne lead them through the close
ay the rose and the lily g-y
her brother john helped her on her horse
and the rose it blooms so sweetly oh
and he had a penknife, keen, and sharp
ay the rose and the lily g-y
he stabbed his sister to the heart
and the rose it blooms so sweetly oh
then up and spoke our leading man
ay the rose and the lily g-y
me thinks our bride looks wondrous wan
and the rose it blooms so sweetly oh
i wish i was on yonder style
ay the rose and the lily g-y
it’s there i’d sit, and bleed awhile
and the rose it blooms so sweetly oh
i wis i was on yonder hill
ay the rose and the lily g-y
it’s there i’d sit, and make my will
and the rose it blooms so sweetly oh
and what would you leave to your father, the king?
the milk white steed that i ride on
what would you leave to your mother, the queen?
the white silk dress that i lie in
but tell her to wash it very clean
for my heart’s blood sticks in every seem
what would you leave to your sister, anne?
a comb of gold, and my feathered fan
what would you leave to your brother, john?
a rope, and a gallows to hang him on
what would you leave to your brother john’s wife?
ay the rose and the lily g-y
a widow’s weeds, and a quiet life
and the rose it blooms so sweetly oh
