Our Hamlet
Adam McNaughtan wrote the poem "Our Hamlet" to help his Glasgow, Scotland inner city students understand William Shakespeare's "Hamlet". McNaughton set the poem to the traditional tune "Mason's Apron". It is performed here on August 11, 2024 by thirteen-year-old Arthur Amidon with harmonies added by his grandparents Peter and Mary Alice Amidon as part of the Guilford (VT) Community Church's Variety Show. Lyrics below.
There was this king sitting in his garden all alone
When his brother in his ear poured a little bit of henbain
Stole his brother’s crown and his money and his widow,
But the dead king walked the grounds again and said “Hey listen kiddo,
I’ve been killed and it’s your duty to tak...

    One day about two years before her death, I was talking to my mother about her childhood. The discussion got to her experiences in school. For some unknown reason, I asked her what her favorite poem was. She said Crossing the Bar. When I was making the funeral arrangements, I had it printed on the back of the funeral program. She was the real thing.

    Lyrics: Sunset and evening star, And one clear call for me! And may there be no moaning of the bar When I put out to sea; But such a tide as moving seems asleep, Too full for sound and foam, When that which drew from out the boundless deep Turns again home. Twilight and evening bell, And after that the dark! And may there be no sadness of farewell When I embark; For, though from out our bourne of time and place The flood may bear me far, I hope to see my Pilot face to face When I have crossed the bar.

      I *totally **_disagree_* -- my first thought is "No race, genre, or ethnicity has an exclusive claim to soul or singing from the heart." I knew Aaron's rendition first and maybe I'll always prefer it. I love the Neville Brothers and New Orleans music to distraction. But I grew up listening to bluegrass and mountain music distilled from Celtic settlers. If you don't believe they have as much soul as any culture on Planet Earth...what can I say? It's truly your loss.

      Love this version. First heard the Dead do it at Soldier's and Sailor's War Memorial in Kansas City, KS, Feb 5 1969. Aaron's version on his "Warm Your Heart" album and the Soweto Gospel Choir's version on their "Blessed" album are beautiful as well.
