Paroles de The slopes of Strath Bàn
Walking out early alone on a morning in MayAmong green fields, an outcast and purposeless
I saw a maiden who lived some way above me
As she washed her clothes out in the slopes of Strath Bàn
I then climbed upwards to the maiden I loved
And courteously and mildly I spoke to her:
" It's over a year since our love began,
And if you are willing we shall marry at once."
"Marry? I'm too young to marry just now-
Your sort has a tongue that could cause trouble anywhere;
My father and mother would scold me forever more
If I were to marry the likes of you
You feckless young man."
But you young girls everywhere who are still unmarried
Don't go turning young men down through pride or contempt
How sad for me to be unmarried forever more
I'll have to live alone
Out on the slopes of Strath Bàn...
" It's over a year since our love began,
And if you are willing we shall marry at once."
"Marry? I'm too young to marry just now-
Your sort has a tongue that could cause trouble anywhere;
My father and mother would scold me forever more
If I were to marry the likes of you
You feckless young man."
But you young girls everywhere who are still unmarried
Don't go turning young men down through pride or contempt
How sad for me to be unmarried forever more
I'll have to live alone
Out on the slopes of Strath Bàn...
