Sheath And Knife

And the sun goes over the woods
There was a sister and her brother
Who did so loved one another
O Sister, we'll gang tae the broom
O Sister I would lay thee doon
O Brother, alas, would you do so
To my death I would sooner go
And the folk they talk together
About the lass is with bairn to her brother
O brother you have done me ill
And we will both burn on yonder hill
O sister, you go to my father's stable
And take two horses stout and able
She's up on the white horse, he's on the black
With his yew tree bow slung fast to his back
They had not rode a mile but one
When her pains they did come on
I would give all my father's land
For a good midwife at my command
O brother, go to yon hill so high
And take your bow, arrows and your good eye
When you hear my loud, loud cry
Bend your bow and let the arrows fly
When he heard her loud, loud cry
He bent his bow and let these arrows fly
When he came at her side
The babe was born and the lady died
Then he took his new born son
And took him into the arms of a milk woman
He's cut himself a wound for sure
He won't gang tae the broom any more
O mother I have lost my knife
I loved it better than my life
But I have lost a better thing
The bonnie sheath my knife was in
And the sun goes over the woods
