Jarlen av Murray [English translation]
Jarlen av Murray [English translation]
He was so brave a knight
he rode to the ring with honour
my valorous Earl of Murray
he might well be king
He was so brave a knight
he was able to whistle well
my bonnie Earl of Murray
after whom the queen longed
Oh Highland and Lowland
your times' grief is great
they have slain the Earl of Murray
and laid him in the black earth
So long his lady has to sit
in the castle in her bower
before she hears the Earl of Murray
blow the golden horn
So long his lady has to stand
and look out from the battlements
before she sees the Earl of Murray
come riding into town
Oh Highland and Lowland
your times' grief is great
they have slain the Earl of Murray
and laid him in the black earth
Woe to you, woe to you, Huntley
why did you do so?
I asked you to bring him with you
forbade you to hit him
Oh Highland and Lowland
your times' grief is great
they have slain the Earl of Murray
and laid him in the black earth
