Lady Margaret - David McWilliams
As I walked among the green fields
One evening in May
I spied the fairest damsels
All at their sport and play
Such beauty as beguiled me
I never did see again
The one was lady Margaret
The other Evelainne
I passed beside their garden
As I daily went my way
From work among the cattle
Where I labored for my pay
As the sun was setting low
Their laughter ran like wine
And made the young men tremble
Made them lose their minds
My father often told me
Never enter through their gate
For many young men had before
None did know their fate
They say each has the devil's eye
And none to mercy show
Who entered in their garden
Where no earthly man should go
They say they loved a soldier
Who did take of both in turn
When he had been satisfied
He both of them did spurn
And they placed their curse upon him
Till they drained his life away
And on every man who enters
They take their vengeance to this day
Though for three score year's
I've lived here
With my border and my gun
Their laughter still comes tumbling
Setting of the sun
And their beauty still beguiles me
As they play their children's games
The one is lady Margaret
The other Evelainne
As I walked among the green fields
One evening in May
