Сижу в Берлинской квартире shaherezada и слушаю песенку Ноэля.

Handsome Molly

Traditional

Lyrics:

[1] Wish I was in London,

Or some other seaport town;

I’d set my foot in a steamboat,

I’d sail the ocean ’round.

While sailing around the ocean,

While sailing around the sea,

I’d think of handsome Molly

Wherever she might be.

I went to church last Sunday

I saw Molly there

I saw her mind was changing

By the roving of her eye.

Don’t you remember, Molly,

When you gave me your right hand?

You said if you ever marry

That I’d be the man.

Now you’ve broke your promise,

Go home with who you please,

While my poor heart is aching

You’re lying at your ease.

Hair was black as a raven,

Her eyes was black as coal,

Her cheeks was like lilies

Out in the morning grown.

So I wish I was in London,

Or some other seaport town;

I’d set my foot in a steamboat,

I’d sail the ocean ’round.
