歌词
Word is to the kitchen gone, and word is to the hall<br />
And word is up to madam the queen, and that's the worst of all<br />
That Mary Hamilton has borne a babe<br />
To the highest stuart of all<br />
<br />
Oh rise, arise Mary Hamilton<br />
Arise and tell to me<br />
What thou hast done with thy wee babe<br />
I saw and heard weep by thee<br />
<br />
I put him in a tiny boat<br />
And cast him out to sea<br />
That he might sink or he might swim<br />
But he'd never come back to me<br />
<br />
Oh rise arise Mary Hamilton<br />
Arise and come with me<br />
There is a wedding in Glasgow town<br />
This night we'll go and see<br />
<br />
She put not on her robes of black<br />
Nor her robes of brown<br />
But she put on her robes of white<br />
To ride into Glasgow town<br />
<br />
And as she rode into Glasgow town<br />
The city for to see<br />
The bailiff's wife and the provost's wife<br />
Cried alack and alas for thee<br />
<br />
Oh you need not weep for me she cried<br />
You need not week for me<br />
For had I not slain my own wee babe<br />
This death I would not dee<br />
<br />
Oh little did my mother think<br />
When first she cradled me<br />
The lands I was to travel in<br />
And the death I was to dee<br />
<br />
Last night I washed the queen's feet<br />
Put the gold in her hair<br />
And the only reward I find for this<br />
The gallows to be my share<br />
<br />
Cast off, cast off my gown, she cried<br />
But let my petticoat be<br />
And tie a napkin round my face<br />
The gallows, I would not see<br />
<br />
Then by them come the king himself<br />
Looked up with a pitiful eye<br />
Come down, come down Mary Hamilton<br />
Tonight you will dine with me<br />
<br />
Oh hold your tongue, my sovereign liege<br />
And let your folly be<br />
For if you'd a mind to save my life<br />
You'd never have shamed me here<br />
<br />
Last night there were four Marys<br />
Tonight there'll be but three<br />
It was Mary Beaton and Mary Seton<br />
And Mary Carmichael and me
