june tabor & oysterband - seven curses كلمات الأغنية

[verse 1]
old reilly he stole a stallion
but they caught him and they brought him back
and they laid him down on the jailhouse ground
with an iron chain around his neck

[verse 2]
old reilly’s daughter got a message
that her father was going to hang
she rode by night and came by morning
with gold and silver in her hand

[verse 3]
when the judge he saw reilly’s daughter
his old eyes deepened in his head
saying, “gold will never free your father
the price, my dear, is you instead”

[verse 4]
“i’m as good as dead,” says reilly
“it’s only you that he does crave
my skin will surely crawl if he touches you at all
get on your horse and ride away”

[verse 5]
“oh, father you will surely die
if i don’t take the chance to try
and pay the price and not take your advice
for that reason i will have to stay”
[verse 6]
the gallows shadows shook that evening
in the night a hound dog bayed
in the night the grounds were groaning
in the night the price was paid

[verse 7]
the next morning she had awoken
to know that the judge had never spoken
she saw that hangin’ branch a_bendin’
she saw her father’s body broken

[verse 8]
seven curses on a judge so cruel:
that one doctor will not save him
that two healers will not heal him
and three eyes will not see him

[verse 9]
and four ears will not hear him
and five walls will not hide him
that six diggers will not bury him
and seven deaths will never free him
