anaïs mitchell - riddles wisely expounded (child 1) كلمات الأغنية
there were three sisters in the north
lay the bend to the bonny broom
and they lived in their mother’s house
and you’ll beguile a lady soon
there came a man one evening late
lay the bend to the bonny broom
he came knocking at the gate
and you’ll beguile a lady soon
the other sister let him
lay the bend to the bonny broom
and locked the door with a silver pin
and you’ll beguile a lady soon
the second sister made his bed
lay the bend to the bonny broom
and laid soft pillows ‘neath his head
and you’ll beguile a lady soon
the youngest sister, fair and bright
lay the bend to the bonny broom
she lay beside him all through the night
and you’ll beguile a lady soon
and in the morning, come the day
lay the bend to the bonny broom
she said “young man, will you marry me?”
and you’ll beguile a lady soon
he said “yes, i’ll marry thee
lay the bend to the bonny broom
if you can answer this for me:
and you’ll beguile a lady soon
what is greener than the gr-ss?
lay the bend to the bonny broom
and what is smoother than a gl-ss?
and you’ll beguile a lady soon
what is louder than a h-rn?
lay the bend to the bonny broom
and what is sharper than a th-rn?
and you’ll beguile a lady soon
what is deeper than the sea?
lay the bend to the bonny broom
and what is longer than the way?”
and you’ll beguile a lady soon
“envy’s greener than the gr-ss
lay the bend to the bonny broom
flattery’s smoother than the gl-ss
and you’ll beguile a lady soon
rumour’s louder than the h-rn
lay the bend to the bonny broom
slander’s sharper than the th-rn
and you’ll beguile a lady soon
regret is deeper than the sea
lay the bend to the bonny broom
but love is longer than the way”
and you’ll beguile a lady soon
the elder sister rang the bell
lay the bend to the bonny broom

and you’ll beguile a lady soon
the second sister made the gown
lay the bend to the bonny broom
she sewed it of a silk so fine
and you’ll beguile a lady soon
the younger sister true and wise
lay the bend to the bonny broom
they made of her a lovely bride
and you’ll beguile a lady soon
and now fair maids are bid adieu
lay the bend to the bonny broom
these parting words i’ll leave with you
and you’ll beguile a lady soon
may you always constant prove
lay the bend to the bonny broom
unto the one that you do love
and you’ll beguile a lady soon
