Two Sisters — текст песни (Clannad)

There were two sisters side by side

Sing aye dum, sing aye day

There were two sisters side by side

The boys are born for me

There were two sisters side by side

The eldest for young johnny cried

Ill be true for my love

If hell be true to me



Johnny bought the youngest a gay gold ring...

He never bought the eldest a single thing...



Johnny bought the youngest a beaver hat...

The eldest never thought much of that...



As they were walking by the foamy brim...

The eldest pushed the youngest in...



Sister, oh sister give me thy hand...

And you can have johnny and all his land...



Sister I wont give you my hand...

And Ill have johnny and all his land...



So there she sank and away she swam...

Until she came to the millers dam...



Miller took away her gay gold ring...

And then he pushed her in again...



Miller he was hanged on the mountain head...

The eldest sister was boiled in lead...
