[00:01.26]The Blackest Crow-Altan
[00:10.74]The time draws near, my dearest dear,
[00:16.05]When you and I must part.
[00:21.11]You cannot know my grief and woe
[00:26.59]In my poor aching heart,
[00:31.82]'T is how I suffer for your sake,
[00:37.28]Believe me love it's true,
[00:42.62]I wish that you were staying here ,
[00:47.97]Or I would go with you.
[00:55.99]I wish my breast were made of glass,
[01:01.16]Wherein you might behold,
[01:06.53]Upon my heart your name lies wrote
[01:11.54]In letters made of gold,
[01:17.15]In letters made of gold, my love,
[01:22.54]Believe me , when I say,
[01:27.87]You are the darling of my heart,
[01:33.33]Until my dying day.
[01:41.11]And everyday will seem like two,
[01:46.44]And every hour like ten,
[01:51.69]I'll lay and weep, forsake my sleep,
[01:57.15]'Til I see you again,
[02:02.02]'Til I see you again, my love,
[02:07.91]There is no rest for me,
[02:13.01]No dreams but those within my heart,
[02:18.58]Of love, sweet love with thee.
[02:26.49]And when you're in some foreign land,
[02:31.83]Pray think on your absent friend,
[02:36.94]And when the wind blows high or low,
[02:42.40]A letter to me send,
[02:47.41]And when the wind blows high or clear,
[02:53.16]Pray send it love to me,
[02:58.33]That I may know by your handwrite,
[03:03.86]Of times I've gone with thee.
[03:54.74]The blackest crow ,that ever flew,
[03:59.84]Would surely turn to white,
[04:05.04]If ever I 'd prove false to you,
[04:10.46]Bright day would turn to night,
[04:15.33]Bright day would turn to night, my love,
[04:21.27]The elements would mourn,
[04:26.51]If ever I'd prove false to you,
[04:31.87]The seas would rage and burn.
