All Things Are Quite Silent
All things are quite silent, each mortal at rest
When me and my true love lay snug in one nest
And a set of bold ruffians broke into our cave
And they forced my dear jewel to plough the salt wave
I begged hard for my darling as I would for my life
But they would not hear me although a fond wife
Saying, "The king must have sailors, to the wars he must go"
And they left me lamenting in sorrow and woe
Through woods and green meadows we ofttimes have walked
And the fond recollections together have talked
Where the lark and the blackbird so sweetly did sing
And the lovely thrushes' voices made the valleys to ring
Now although I'm forsaken, I won't be cast down
Who knows but my true love some day may return
And will make me amends for my trouble and strife
And me and my true love will be happy for life
When me and my true love lay snug in one nest
And a set of bold ruffians broke into our cave
And they forced my dear jewel to plough the salt wave
I begged hard for my darling as I would for my life
But they would not hear me although a fond wife
Saying, "The king must have sailors, to the wars he must go"
And they left me lamenting in sorrow and woe
Through woods and green meadows we ofttimes have walked
And the fond recollections together have talked
Where the lark and the blackbird so sweetly did sing
And the lovely thrushes' voices made the valleys to ring
Now although I'm forsaken, I won't be cast down
Who knows but my true love some day may return
And will make me amends for my trouble and strife
And me and my true love will be happy for life
