Niamh Parsons - Orphan's Wedding...
One fine summer's morning as nature was dawning,
And good folk held to the church bells.
Two young lovers by life were deceived,
And their story I sadly will tell.
For all the town knew of our wedding,
Now all the town knows of our shame.
And I've been broken forever,
By the stranger who told me my name.
She came from the city to help in the harvest,
I worked in the field by her side.
And all that long winter I courted my love,
In the summer I made her my bride.
And happy were we for the first time together,
Since the Great War had taken our kin.
When a man from the government came to our door,
And he asked if I might let him in.
With a voice that was colder than wind o'er the mountain,
Or the spray of a winter worn sea.
He said that together we could not remain,
For brother and sister were we.
For all the town knew of our wedding,
Now all the town knows of our shame.
And I've been broken forever,
By the stranger who told me my name.
Now in summer I roam through the deep glens and quiet,
And sit by their dark water side.
And there I think only on her that I shamed,
And all for the taking of a bride.
For all the town knew of our wedding,
Now all the town knows of our shame.
And I've been broken forever,
By the stranger who told me my name.
