Gnoss - My Ship
And I will sail her on the sea
And I'll go far or yonder order
To see my love, mind's on me
And he sailed east
And he sailed west
And he sailed far, far seeking land
Until he came to his love's window
Where he knocked loud and would be in
'Who is that at my bedroom window
Who knocks so loud and would be in'
Oh it's I, your aim true lover
And I am drench unto the skin
So gone, go. Go ask your father
To see if he'll et you marry me
If he says no come back and tell me
And it's the last time I'll bothеr thee
'Future lovers have I without
And to as fеw as I have with him
Unless you be my true love Jaime
And I am sure you are nae him'
To my dispraise that is not true love
To my dishonour that cannot be
For I nor slighted or denied you
Until this night you slighted me
For I will set my ship in order
I will sail her on the sea
I'll go far or yonder order
For my true love reminds me
'Come back, come back
My ain dear Jaime
Come back, come back
And marry me'
I can't come back
And marry you love
Our ship is sailing out to see
If all the lands were pens and paper
And all the seas were the perfect ink
And all the hills were my ink holder
My true loves praise I would not write
She's turned herself right round to boot her
She's thrown herself into the sea
Farewell, Farewell, my ain dear Jaime
You'll nae to come back to me
