Beyond the gate up there,
O mother.

1:08:09

Beyond the gate up there.

1:08:12

The nail on that stake bare,

1:08:19

The noose's hempen slide.

1:08:26

What word for that lad
who would come

1:08:29

So much to visit us at home

1:08:31

And used to lie with you?

1:08:37

Of this my blessing him apprise,

1:08:42

Let worms eat his soul
till he dies,

1:08:45

That he was so untrue.

1:08:52

And for your mother what,
my daughter,

1:08:56

And for your mother what?

1:08:59

Who loved you from the cot,

1:09:02

Who loved you, life and limb?

1:09:10

This curse for you I save,
O mother,

1:09:16

This curse for you I save,

1:09:19

That you'll not rest a-grave,

1:09:23

For you gave me to him.
