Harp of Death Songtext / Lyric


Omnia - Harp of Death Songtext


There lived a lady on the North Sea shore

Lay te bent to the bonnie broom

She had two daghters that she adored

Fa la la la la la la la la la



The youngest daughter born to sweet delight

Lay te bent to the bonnie broom

The eldest daughter born to greed and spite

Fa la la la la la la la la la



A knight caame for the fairest in the land

Lay te bent to the bonnie broom

He was promised the young girl's hand

Fa la la la la la la la la la



Grimmest envy in the elder grew

Lay te bent to the bonnie broom

She planned to steal her sister's lover true

Fa la la la la la la la la la






"Oh darling sister won't you come with me"

Lay te bent to the bonnie broom

"To watch the swans swimming in the sea?"

Fa la la la la la la la la la



On the rocks were the mermaids sing

Lay te bent to the bonnie broom

The elder sister pushed the younger in

Fa la la la la la la la la la



"Oh cruel sister, please let me live"

Lay te bent to the bonnie broom

"And all that's mine to you I'll give"

Fa la la la la la la la la la



"I'll take your true love and I'll take more"

Lay te bent to the bonnie broom

"For I never let you come ashore"

Fa la la la la la la la la la



The fair girl drowned beneath the North Sea foam

Lay te bent to the bonnie broom

Her broken body washed upon the stones

Fa la la la la la la la la la



Three witches found her in the dead of night

Lay te bent to the bonnie broom

And wove a spell to put her soul at right

Fa la la la la la la la la la



The made a harp out of her skin and bone

Lay te bent to the bonnie broom

The tuning pegs made from her finger bones

Fa la la la la la la la la la



They took nine locks of her golden hair

Lay te bent to the bonnie broom

And with them strung the harp so rare

Fa la la la la la la la la la



The took the harp on to her mother's hall

Lay te bent to the bonnie broom

And set it down to play bevore them all

Fa la la la la la la la la la



The harp of Death began to play alone

Lay te bent to the bonnie broom

The sweetest song to melt a heart of stone

Fa la la la la la la la la la



Golden strings rang out a truthful sound

Lay te bent to the bonnie broom

The elder sister has the younger drowned

Fa la la la la la la la la la



Strings of sorrowmade of golden curls

Lay te bent to the bonnie broom

wreak their vengeance on the black-haired girl

Fa la la la la la la la la la



The song ends heere dark and low

Lay te bent to the bonnie broom

And surely now her blood will flow

Fa la la la la la la la la la
