Susannes Folksong-Notizen English Notes
The Parting Glass
- (Trad)
Oh all the money e'er I spent
I spent it in good company
And all the harm that e'er I've done
It was, alas! to none but me
And all I've said through want of wit
To memory now I can't recall
So fill to me the parting glass
Good night and joy be with you all
Oh all the comrades that e'er I had
They're sorry for my going away
And all the sweethearts that e'er I had
They would wish me one more day to stay
But since it falls unto my lot
That I should rise and you should not
I gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be with you all
(as sung by Iain MacKintosh & Hamish Imlach)
