letra de edward - scottish folk ballad

“why does your brand sae drop wi’ blude
edward, edward?
why does your brand sae drop wi’ blude
and why sae sad gang ye, o?”
“o i hae k!ll’d my hawk sae gude
mither, mither;
o i hae k!ll’d my hawk sae gude
and i had nae mair but he, o.”

“your hawk’s blude was never sae red
edward, edward;
your hawk’s blude was never sae red
my dear son, i tell thee, o.”
“o i hae k!ll’d my red-roan steed
mither, mither;
o i hae k!ll’d my red-roan steed
that erst was sae fair and free, o.”

“your steed was auld, and ye hae got mair
edward, edward;
your steed was auld, and ye hae got mair;
my dеar son, i tell thee, o.”
“o i hae slain my father dеar
mither, mither;
o i hae slain my father dear
alas, and wae is me, o!”
“and whatten penance will ye dree for that
edward, edward?
whatten penance will ye dree for that?
my dear son, i tell thee, o.”
“i’ll set my feet upon a boat
mither, mither;
i’ll set my feet upon a boat
and i’ll gang over the sea, o.”

“and what will ye do wi’ your tow’rs and your ha’
edward, edward?
and what will ye do wi’ your tow’rs and your ha’
that were sae fair to see, o?”
“i’ll let them stand till they doun fa’
mither, mither;
i’ll let them stand till they doun fa’
for here never mair maun i be, o.”

“and what will ye leave to your bairns and your wife
edward, edward?
and what will ye leave to your bairns and your wife
when ye gang owre the sea, o?”
“the warld’s room: let them beg through life
mither, mither;
the warld’s room: let them beg through life;
for them never mair will i see, o.”
“and what will ye leave to your ain mither dear
edward, edward?
and what will ye leave to your ain mither dear
my dear son, i tell thee, o?”
“the curse of h-ll from me sall ye bear
mither, mither;
the curse of h-ll from me sall ye bear:
sic counsels ye gave to me, o!”
