Blackmore's Night "Barbara Allen" lyrics

Translation to:hrit

Barbara Allen

Twas in the merry month of MayThe green buds were a swellingSweet William on his death bed layFor the love of Barbara Allen

He sent his servant unto herTo the place where she was dwellingSaying you must come to his bedside nowIf your name be Barbara Allen

So slowly, slowly she got upAnd slowly she drew nigh himAnd the only words to him she saidYoung man I think you're dying

As she walked slowly o'er fieldsShe heard the death bell knellingAnd with every stroke it seemed to sayHardhearted Barbara Allen

Oh mother, mother make my bedMake it long and narrowSweet William died for me todayAnd I will die for him tomorrow

They buried her in the old churchyardThey buried him beside herAnd from his grave grew a red, red roseAnd from her grave a green briar

They grew and grew to the steeple topTill they could not grow higherAnd there they tied in a true love's knotRed rose around green briar

Barbara Allen

Bilo je to u veselom mjesecu svibnjuZeleni pupoljci su bujaliSlatki William na samrtnoj je postelji ležaoZbog ljubavi za Barbaru Allen

Poslao je slugu svoga k njojNa mjesto gdje se zadržavalaGovoreći moraš mu doći nauznak sadaAko ime ti je Barbara Allen

Tako polako, polako ustala jeI polako vukla se bliže njemuI samo mu je riječi reklaMomče, mislim da umireš

Dok je hodala polako preko poljaČula je smrtnog zvona jecajI svakim udarom činilo se da govoriBarbara Allen tvrdoga srca

O majko, majko, spremi mi krevetNeka bude dug i uzakSlatki William umrije za me danasA ja ću umrijeti za njega sutra

Pokopaše je u starom crkvenom dvorištuPokopaše njega pored njeI iz njegova groba izrasla crvena, crvena ružaA iz njezina groba divlja ruža

Rasli su i rasli do vrha zvonikaDok nisu mogli više rastiI ondje su zavezali čvor prave ljubaviCrvena ruža oko divlje ruže
