All Things Are Quite Silent (Rowan 2006)

Текст песни Maggie Reilly - All Things Are Quite Silent (Rowan 2006)

All things are quite silent, each mortal at rest
When me and my love got snug in one nest
When a bold set of ruffians they entered our cave
And they forced my dear jewel to plough the salt wave

I begged hard for my sailor as I'd beg for my life
They'd not listen to me although a fond wife
Saying: "The king he wants sailors, to the sea he must go,"
And they've left me lamenting in sorrow and woe

Although my love's gone I will not be cast down
Who knows but my sailor may once more return?
And will make me amends for all trouble and strife
And my true love and I might live happy for life
