[00:00.000]	作词 : Traditional
[00:00.494]	Lady Margaret, Lady Margaret, was sewing at her seam
[00:06.701]	And she’s all dressed in black.
[00:10.905]	And the thought come in her head to run in the wood
[00:15.607]	to pull flowers to flower her hat, me boys,
[00:19.289]	to pull flowers to flower her hat.
[00:23.852]	So she hoisted up her petticoats a bit above the knee
[00:29.120]	And so nimbly she’d run o’er the ground.
[00:33.537]	And when she come in the merry greenwood,
[00:38.386]	Well, she pulled them branches down, me boys,
[00:42.941]	Well, she pulled them branches down.
[00:48.221]	Suddenly she spied a fine young man,
[00:52.756]	He’s standing by a tree.
[00:56.852]	He says, “How dare you pull them branches down
[01:00.928]	Without the leave of me, my dear,
[01:04.968]	Without the leave of me?”
[01:09.725]	Well, she says, “This little wood, oh, it is me very own,
[01:14.747]	Me father gave it to me.
[01:18.862]	I can pull these branches down
[01:22.512]	Without the leave of thee, young man,
[01:26.854]	Oh, without the leave of thee.”
[01:31.034]	And he took her by the milk-white hand
[01:35.811]	And by the grass-green sleeve,
[01:40.206]	He pulled her down at the foot of a bush,
[01:44.189]	And he never once asked her leave, me boys,
[01:48.554]	No, he never once asked her leave.
[01:53.122]	And when it was done she twist about
[01:59.266]	To ask her true-love’s name.
[02:03.419]	But she nothing heard and she nothing saw
[02:08.377]	And all the woods grew dim, grew dim,
[02:11.362]	And all the woods grew dim.
[02:19.171]	There’s four and twenty ladies all in the land
[02:24.666]	and they’re all playing at chess.
[02:29.085]	Except it was the Lady Margaret
[02:33.000]	And she’s green as any glass, me boys,
[02:37.440]	Oh, she’s green as any glass.
[02:42.134]	And there’s four and twenty ladies all in the land
[02:48.044]	Grow as red as any rose.
[02:52.155]	Except it was the Lady Margaret,
[02:57.235]	She’s pale and wan, me boys,
[03:00.705]	Oh, pale and wan she goes.
[03:06.163]	Up then spoke the little servant girl,
[03:11.161]	She lift her hand and smiled,
[03:14.577]	Says, “I think my lady has loved too long
[03:19.503]	And now she goes with child, me dears,
[03:24.032]	Oh, and now she goes with child.”
[03:29.645]	Up then spoke the second serving girl
[03:34.600]	“Oh, ever and alas,” said she,
[03:38.480]	“But I think I know a herb in the merry greenwood,
[03:44.451]	It’ll twine thy baby from thee, madam,
[03:48.474]	It’ll twine thy baby from thee.”
[03:53.735]	So Lady Margaret she got her silver comb,
[03:58.507]	Made haste to comb her hair,
[04:02.475]	And then she’s away to the merry greenwood
[04:07.398]	As fast as she can tear, me boys,
[04:12.191]	Oh, as fast as she can tear.
[04:17.032]	And she hadn’t pulled in the merry greenwood
[04:22.432]	A herb but barely one
[04:25.865]	When by her stood the young Tambling,
[04:29.933]	He says, “Margaret, leave it alone,
[04:33.375]	Oh Margaret, leave it alone.”
[04:38.830]	“Why d’you pull that bitter little herb,
[04:42.674]	The herb that grows so grey,
[04:47.251]	For to destroy that fine young babe
[04:51.859]	That we got in our play, my dear,
[04:56.237]	That we got in our play?”
[05:01.509]	“Well, come tell me now, young Tambling,” she says,
[05:06.884]	“If an earthly man you be.”
[05:10.821]	“I’ll tell you no lies,” says young Tambling,
[05:15.314]	“I was christened as good as thee, me dear,
[05:19.285]	I was christened as good as thee.”
[05:24.361]	“But as I rode a-hunting on a bitter, bitter night,
[05:29.572]	It was from my horse I fell,
[05:33.772]	And the Queen of Elfland she caught me
[05:38.509]	In yonder green hill to dwell, to dwell,
[05:42.889]	Oh, in yonder green hill to dwell.”
[05:48.241]	“But tonight is Halloween, lady,
[05:53.910]	The Elven Court will ride.
[05:57.880]	And if you would your true love win,
[06:02.416]	By the mill bridge you must hide, me dear,
[06:07.341]	By the mill bridge you must hide.”
[06:12.566]	“And first will run the black horse and then will run the brown,
[06:17.737]	And then race by the white.
[06:21.537]	You hold him fast and you fear him not,
[06:25.769]	For he’s the father of your child, my love,
[06:30.374]	Oh, he’s the father of your child.”
[06:35.328]	“They’ll turn me all in your arms, lady,
[06:39.757]	Into many’s the beasts so wild.
[06:43.820]	But you’ll hold on fast and you fear no ill,
[06:48.511]	For it’s the father of your child, my love,
[06:52.769]	It’s the father of your child.”
[06:58.425]	So Lady Margaret she got her silver comb,
[07:03.188]	She made haste to comb her hair.
[07:07.282]	Then she’s away to the old mill-bridge
[07:11.211]	As fast as she could tear, me boys,
[07:15.835]	Oh, as fast as she could tear.
[07:21.953]	And about the dead hour of the night
[07:27.422]	She heard the bridles ring.
[07:31.608]	And oh, me boys, it chilled her heart
[07:36.165]	More than any earthly thing it did,
[07:40.423]	More than any earthly thing.
[07:45.372]	And first run the black horse and then run the brown
[07:50.591]	And then race by the white.
[07:54.350]	Well, she hold it fast and feared it not,
[07:58.808]	For it’s the father of her child,
[08:02.763]	Oh, it’s the father of her child.
[08:08.565]	The thunder rolled across the sky,
[08:13.842]	The stars blazed bright as day.
[08:18.461]	The Queen of Elven gave a thrilling cry,
[08:24.310]	“Young Tambling’s away, brave boys,
[08:28.565]	Young Tambling’s away.”
[08:33.683]	And the very first thing they turned him into
[08:39.191]	Was a lion that runs so wild.
[08:42.953]	But she held him fast, she feared him not,
[08:46.890]	For he’s the father of her child, me boys,
[08:51.740]	Oh, he’s father of her child.
[08:57.729]	And the very next thing they turned him into,
[09:02.977]	It was a loathsome snake.
[09:07.129]	He says, “Hold me fast and fear me not,
[09:11.500]	For I’m one of God’s own make, my love,
[09:17.397]	Oh, I’m one one of God’s own make.”
[09:22.489]	And again they changed him all in her arms
[09:27.805]	To a red hot bar of iron.
[09:31.984]	But she held it fast, she feared it not,
[09:36.383]	And it did to her no harm, no harm,
[09:41.045]	And it did to her no harm.
[09:46.689]	And the very last thing they changed him into
[09:51.912]	Was like any naked man.
[09:56.401]	She flung her mantle over him,
[10:00.634]	She cried, “Me love I’ve won, I’ve won,”
[10:06.591]	Oh, she cried, “Me love I’ve won.”
[10:12.365]	And the Queen of Elven she called from a bush,
[10:17.882]	She’s red as any blood.
[10:22.332]	“I should have tore out your eyes, Tambling,
[10:27.052]	And put in two eyes of wood, of wood,
[10:32.611]	And put in two eyes of wood.”

[05:33.772]	And the Queen of Elfland she caught me
[05:38.509]	In yonder green hill to dwell, to dwell,
[05:42.889]	Oh, in yonder green hill to dwell."
[05:48.241]	" But tonight is Halloween, lady,
[05:53.910]	The Elven Court will ride.
[05:57.880]	And if you would your true love win,
[06:02.416]	By the mill bridge you must hide, me dear,
[06:07.341]	By the mill bridge you must hide."
[06:12.566]	" And first will run the black horse and then will run the brown,
[06:17.737]	And then race by the white.
[06:21.537]	You hold him fast and you fear him not,
[06:25.769]	For he' s the father of your child, my love,
[06:30.374]	Oh, he' s the father of your child."
[06:35.328]	" They' ll turn me all in your arms, lady,
[06:39.757]	Into many' s the beasts so wild.
[06:43.820]	But you' ll hold on fast and you fear no ill,
[06:48.511]	For it' s the father of your child, my love,
[06:52.769]	It' s the father of your child."
[06:58.425]	So Lady Margaret she got her silver comb,
[07:03.188]	She made haste to comb her hair.
[07:07.282]	Then she' s away to the old millbridge
[07:11.211]	As fast as she could tear, me boys,
[07:15.835]	Oh, as fast as she could tear.
[07:21.953]	And about the dead hour of the night
[07:27.422]	She heard the bridles ring.
[07:31.608]	And oh, me boys, it chilled her heart
[07:36.165]	More than any earthly thing it did,
[07:40.423]	More than any earthly thing.
[07:45.372]	And first run the black horse and then run the brown
[07:50.591]	And then race by the white.
[07:54.350]	Well, she hold it fast and feared it not,
[07:58.808]	For it' s the father of her child,
[08:02.763]	Oh, it' s the father of her child.
[08:08.565]	The thunder rolled across the sky,
[08:13.842]	The stars blazed bright as day.
[08:18.461]	The Queen of Elven gave a thrilling cry,
[08:24.310]	" Young Tambling' s away, brave boys,
[08:28.565]	Young Tambling' s away."
[08:33.683]	And the very first thing they turned him into
[08:39.191]	Was a lion that runs so wild.
[08:42.953]	But she held him fast, she feared him not,
[08:46.890]	For he' s the father of her child, me boys,
[08:51.740]	Oh, he' s father of her child.
[08:57.729]	And the very next thing they turned him into,
[09:02.977]	It was a loathsome snake.
[09:07.129]	He says, " Hold me fast and fear me not,
[09:11.500]	For I' m one of God' s own make, my love,
[09:17.397]	Oh, I' m one one of God' s own make."
[09:22.489]	And again they changed him all in her arms
[09:27.805]	To a red hot bar of iron.
[09:31.984]	But she held it fast, she feared it not,
[09:36.383]	And it did to her no harm, no harm,
[09:41.045]	And it did to her no harm.
[09:46.689]	And the very last thing they changed him into
[09:51.912]	Was like any naked man.
[09:56.401]	She flung her mantle over him,
[10:00.634]	She cried, " Me love I' ve won, I' ve won,"
[10:06.591]	Oh, she cried, " Me love I' ve won."
[10:12.365]	And the Queen of Elven she called from a bush,
[10:17.882]	She' s red as any blood.
[10:22.332]	" I should have tore out your eyes, Tambling,
[10:27.052]	And put in two eyes of wood, of wood,
[10:32.611]	And put in two eyes of wood."
