Lyrics please 🙏
Transcribed with standard English spelling (because I'm unfamiliar with spelling conventions for Scottish dialect) The night that I was married, my sorrows did begin I being a widow's daughter and he a captain's son For now he's gone and left me, and never return will he Since the rocks of Gibraltar have twined my love and me The night that I was married and in my married bed There came a young sea captain and he stood at my bed head Saying arise, arise young married man and come away with me To the rocks of Gibraltar to fight the enemy Lie still lie, still young married bride, lie still and take your ease For it's I must go with this young man wherever that he please For it's I must go with this young man wherever that may be And the rocks of Gibraltar have twined my love and me He built my love a bonny bark and set it on the main With four and twenty mariners to row it back again With four and twenty mariners to row it over the sea And the rocks of Gibraltar have twined my love and me Said the mother to her daughter, oh daughter don't complain For there's many a man in Ireland to ease you of your pain Aye, there's many a man in Ireland, but there's none a match for me Since the rocks of Gibraltar have twined my love and me I'll put no sack upon my back, nor comb through my hair It's neither coal nor candle light shine in my bower more, And I'll not wed with any young man, whoever that he be Since the rocks of Gibraltar have twined my love and me
Celtic groove 💜💜
