paroles de chanson Fair Margaret and Sweet William - Pete Seeger

Lady Margaret sitting in her high hall door Combing her long yellow
Hair Saw sweet William and his new-made Bride Riding from the church
So near She throwed down her ivory comb Throwed back her long yellow
Hair Said I'll go down to bid him farewell And never more go there It
Was all lately in the night When they were fast asleep Lady Margaret
Appeared all dressed in white Standing at their bed feet How do you
Like your pillow said she How do you like your sheet And how do you
Like that fair young lady Lying in your arms asleep Very well do I
Like my pillow says he Very well do I like my sheet But better do I
Like that fair young maiden Standing at my bed feet Once he kissed
Her lily white hand Twice he kissed her cheek Three times he kissed
Her cold corpsey lips And fell in her
Arms asleep Is Lady Magraret in her room?
Or is she in the hall?
No, Lady Margaret's in her cold black
Coffin With her pale face to the wall
