Song for A Lyrics by Nico Cartosio

Melting

2019

It was upon a Lammas night
When corn rigs are lovely
Beneath the moon's unclouded light
I held away to Annie
The time flew by, with careless heed
‘Till between the dark and dawn
With small persuasion she agreed
To see me thro' the barley
To see me thro' the barley
The sky was blue, the wind was still
The Moon was shining clearly
I set her down, with right good will
Among the rigs of barley
Among the rigs o' barley
I knew her heart was all my own
I loved her most sincerely
I kissed her over and over again
Among the rigs of barley
Among the rigs of barley
But by the Moon and stars so bright
That shone that hour so clearly!
She aye shall bless that happy night
Among the rigs of barley
Among the rigs of barley
I have been blythe with comrades dear
I have been merry drinkin’
I have been joyful gathering money
I have been happy thinkin’
But all the pleasures ever I saw
Tho' three times doubled fairly
That happy night was worth them all
Among the rigs of barley
Among the rigs of barley
