Видео: Sinead O`Connor - Her Mantle So Green

As I went out walking, one morning in June
To view the fair fields, and the valleys in bloom;
I spied a pretty fair maid, she appeared like a queen,
With her costly fine robes and her mantle so green

Says I, my pretty fair maid, wont you come with me,
We`ll both join in wedlock, and married we`ll be;
I will dress you in fine linen, you`ll appear like a queen,
With your costly fine robes and your mantle so green.

Says she, now my young man, you must be excused,
For I`ll wed no man, so you must be refused;
To the green woods I will wander and shun all men`s view
For the boy I love dearly lies in farmed waterloo.

Well if you`re not married, say your lover`s name
I fought in that battle, so I might know the same.
Draw near to my garment, and there you will see
His name is embroidered on my mantle so green.

In the ribbon of her mantle, there I did behold,
His name and his surname, in letters of gold
Young William O`Riley, appeared in my view
He was my chief comrade back in farmed waterloo

And as he lay dying, I heard his last cry
вЂњIf you were here lovely Nancy I`d be willing to dieвЂќ
And as I told her this story, in anguish she flew,
And the more that I told her, the paler she grew

So I smiled on my Nancy, вЂ?twas I broke your heart,
In your fathers garden, that day we did part
And this is the truth, and the truth I declare,
Oh here`s your love token the gold ring I wear.
