Fine Horseman
Sleeping in my bed
Strange thoughts a-running through my head.
And I dreamed you were
Playing with my hair.
Fine fine sparrow, fine fine horseman.
Rain falls and the wind roars,
All the folks are indoors.
We came through a ford
Riding over the moors.
Fine fine sparrow and a fine fine horseman.
Your dreams among my dreams
Blue seas amongst sunbeams;
Shades of yellow, shades of green
These are your dreams among my dreams
Fine fine sparrow, fine fine horseman.
Morning to you, farming man
Here's to your heart, your family and land.
I'll pay down a ring and a gold band
On a field for a ride around
For a fine fine sparrow, a fine fine horseman.
Morning likewise, maiden and man,
My family's dead, my heart is in the ground.
I have no land
This is no time for a farming man
Nor a fine fine sparrow, or a fine fine horseman.
Sleeping in my bed
Fino Jinete
Durmiendo en mi cama
Extraños pensamientos corriendo por mi cabeza.
Y soñé que estabas
Jugando con mi cabello.
Fino fino gorrión, fino fino jinete.
Llueve y el viento ruge,
Toda la gente está adentro.
Pasamos por un vado
Cabalgando sobre los páramos.
Fino fino gorrión y un fino fino jinete.
Tus sueños entre mis sueños
Mares azules entre rayos de sol;
Tonos de amarillo, tonos de verde
Estos son tus sueños entre mis sueños
Fino fino gorrión, fino fino jinete.
Buenos días para ti, hombre de campo
Salud a tu corazón, tu familia y tu tierra.
Dejaré un anillo y una banda de oro
En un campo para dar una vuelta
Para un fino fino gorrión, un fino fino jinete.
Buenos días igualmente, doncella y hombre,
Mi familia ha muerto, mi corazón está en la tierra.
No tengo tierra
Este no es momento para un hombre de campo
Ni para un fino fino gorrión, o un fino fino jinete.
Durmiendo en mi cama
