Lyrics

[00:00.000] 作词 : Richard Dawson
[00:01.000] 作曲 : Richard Dawson
[00:24.983] In the kingdom of Bryneich
[00:30.503] Verging on a muddy crook of Coquet
[00:36.024] A dice of houses cast with clay and sheepdung
[00:44.556] Through a soup of starlit peatsmoke
[00:49.324] Gradually emerges as we descend
[01:02.398] "Bring the goose my child!"
[01:05.578] I carve a notch into the squirming post
[01:11.096] It smells like a smithy
[01:15.613] "Hurry now and drink the bowl before it congeals"
[01:27.158] There comes frightful news from town
[01:31.674] Of great evil abound
[01:35.940] The heartbroken potter's idiot boy was snatched from the speltfield
[01:45.226] Scouring a fortnight in the hills
[01:49.492] All they found, pointing from a sett, a small grey hand
[02:02.290] "Tie the goats to my cot
[02:05.552] With tansy rags their faces cover
[02:10.320] Push straws into the windows
[02:15.842] Damp the coals, and bar the door with hornbeam limb"
[02:37.411] Blinding colours leap
[02:46.193] Along bemirrored tower walls
[02:55.474] Stretching as far as the eye can see
[03:23.072] I am woke in icy beads
[03:28.090] By a clamour coming from the broadbeans
[03:33.359] The snapping of stems and a foul-smelling bloom
[03:42.394] Paralysed I watch my child's breath
[03:46.910] Glide like a jellyfish across the black morning
[03:59.960] When the sun is climbing
[04:03.975] We'll find the harrow smothered in slime
[04:08.240] When the sun is climbing
[04:12.255] We'll put it in the dog's noses
[04:16.519] When the sun is climbing
[04:20.534] We'll break upon the heath
[04:24.805] When the sun is climbing
[04:29.322] We'll dash across the Ringing Meadow
[04:33.338] When the sun is climbing
[04:37.352] We'll weather a storm of living needles
[04:41.367] When the sun is climbing
[04:45.131] We'll tarry by the Pool of Plenty
[04:49.647] When the sun is climbing
[04:53.661] We'll hurry down the Valley of Eagles
[04:57.926] When the sun is climbing
[05:01.438] We'll hear the distance of the North Sea
[05:06.206] When the sun is dying
[05:09.970] We'll cross the Causeway of No Memory
[05:14.488] When the sun is dying
[05:17.750] Our trees will billow into dunes
[05:23.019] When the sun is dying
[05:26.030] We'll wade around the shoreline
[05:30.546] When the sun is dying
[05:34.564] The algae as a nap of fire
[05:38.831] When the sun is dying
[05:42.846] Below the surface of the water
[05:47.112] When the sun is dying
[05:50.875] In the face of the cliff a ghastly doorway
[05:55.391] When the sun is dying
[05:58.903] We'll pitch a tent of pigskin on the beach
[06:03.673] When the sun is dying
[06:07.186] The ebbing tide will soon reveal its secrets
