The Wild Wild Berry (OST King Arthur: Legend of the Sword) (исполнитель: Sam Lee)
THE WILD, WILD BERRY (traditional UK) This is the second version of Lord Randal (Child Ballad #12) on this recording. This one has a much more literary sound to it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Young [bad word] from hunting faint and weary “What does ail my lord, my dearie?” “O Mother dear, let my bed be made For I feel the gripe of the woody nightshade.” Lie low sweet Randal [bad word] : Now you young men all who do eat full well And they that sup right merry ‘Tis far better, I entreat, To have toads for your meat Than to eat of the wild, wild berry This young man he died eftsoon By the light of a hunters’ moon ‘Twas not by bolt, nor yet by blade But the deathly gripe of the woody nightshade Lie low sweet Randal [bad word] This lord’s false love, they hanged her high For her deeds were the cause of her love to die And in her hair they entwined a braid Of the leaves and the berries of the woody nightshade Lie low sweet Randal [bad word] ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Collected by Gwilym Davies from Ray Driscol in England.
