Gladwin |
|
On tyrant's land |
|
Near Gainesboro town |
|
He sits so still |
|
Wears no smile nor a frown |
|
His hair shines black |
|
As a raven's wing |
|
And the sound of his pipes |
|
Make the old trees sing |
|
Chorus: |
|
Hear, hear the shepherd's song he sings it just for you |
|
Hear, hear the shepherd's song he sings it just for you |
|
With crook in hand |
|
His staff and sling |
|
He spreads the news |
|
Of crusades and the king |
|
His flock around |
|
On a cold dark night |
|
And he plays his pipes |
|
To the fire light Chorus |
|
His ghost now walks |
|
That lonely moor |
|
At dead of night |
|
When the north winds roar |
|
And in the season |
|
When time is ripe |
|
He'll chill the air |
|
With the sound of his pipes |
|
Chorus |
