Tempest - Cruel Brother/The Tempest Reel/Sue's Reel/Maid of Mount Kisco lyrics



there were three sisters lived in a hall
(aye the rose and the lily oh)

and there came a knight and he courted them all
(oh the rose it smells so sweetly)

Well the first one she was dressed in red
(aye the rose and the lily oh)

Will you come with me and share my bed
(oh the rose it smells so sweetly)

And the second one was dressed in green
(aye the rose and the lily oh)

Will you come with me and be my queen
(oh the rose it smells so sweetly)

the third one she was dressed in white
(aye the rose and the lily oh)

Will you come and be my only light
(oh the rose it smells so sweetly)

...................................
You may ask my father the king
(aye the rose and the lily oh)

and you may ask my mother the queen
(oh the rose it smells so sweetly)

and you may ask my sister ann
(aye the rose and the lily oh)

but don't forget my brother john
(oh the rose it smells so sweetly)

so he has asked her father the king
(aye the rose and the lily oh)

and he has asked her mother the queen
(oh the rose it smells so sweetly)

and he has asked her sister ann
(aye the rose and the lily oh)

but he forgot her brother john
(oh the rose it smells so sweetly)
.........................................

her father he led her through the hall
(aye the rose and the lily oh)

and her mother she danced before them all
(oh the rose it smells so sweetly)

and her sister ann led her to the course
(aye the rose and the lily oh)

and her brother john helped her on her horse
(oh the rose it smells so sweetly)

he has taken the blade both long and sharp
(aye the rose and the lily oh)

and he pierced the bride right through the heart
................................................

lead me gently up the hill
{softly} (aye the rose and the lily oh)

and there i'll sit and make my will
{softly} (oh the rose it smells so sweetly)

what will you leave your father dear
{softly} (aye the rose and the lily oh)

the bonny steed that brought me here
{softly} (oh the rose it smells so sweetly)

what will you leave your mother dear
{softly} (aye the rose and the lily oh)

the bloody robes that i do wear
{softly} (oh the rose it smells so sweetly)

what will you leave your sister ann
{softly} (aye the rose and the lily oh)

the golden ring from of my hand
(oh the rose it smells so sweetly)

what will you leave your mother john
(aye the rose and the lily oh)

the gallows free to hang him on
oh the rose it smells so sweetly)
