Teic, kur gan tu biji, kungs Randāl, mans dēls? Teic, kur gan tu medīji, mīļotais mans? Es zaļmežā biju, klāj gultu drīz, Māt. Es – noguris medīdams, sirds mana sāp. Ko sastapi mežā, kungs Randāl, mans dēls? Ko atradi mežā, ak, mīļotais mans? Es satiku Mīļo, klāj gultu drīz Māt. Tai līdzi es aizjāju, sirds mana sāp. Ko viņa tev deva, Kungs Randāl, mans dēls? Ko viņa tev iedeva, mīļotais mans. Tā uzcepa sēnes, klāj gultu drīz , Māt. Es – noguris medīdams , sirds mana sāp. Ko tu viņai devi, Kungs Randāl, mans dēls? Ko tu viņai atdevi, mīļotais mans? Es – vanagus, suņus, klāj gultu drīz, Māt. Es – noguris medīdams , sirds mana sāp. Un kas ar tiem bija, Kungs Randāl, mans dēls? Un kas ar tiem notika, mīļotais mans. Tie izlaida garu, klāj gultu drīz, Māt. Es - noguris medīdams, sirds mana sāp. Ak, indi tu ēdis, Kungs Randāl, mans dēls! Ak, indi tu baudījis, mīļotais mans! Tā galēja mani, klāj gultu drīz, Māt. Es – noguris medīdams , sirds mana sāp. Ko novēli mātei, Kungs Randāl, mans dēls? Ko atstāsi mantot , ak, mīļotais mans? Simts pienīgas govis, klāj gultu drīz, Māt. Es – noguris medīdams , sirds mana sāp. Ko novēli māsai, Kungs Randāl, mans dēls? Ko atstāsi mantot , ak, mīļotais mans? Daudz sudraba, zelta, klāj gultu drīz , Māt. Es – noguris medīdams, sirds mana sāp. Ko novēli brālim, Kungs Randāl, mans dēls? Ko atstāsi mantot, ak, mīļotais mans? Šo pili un zemes, klāj gultu drīz, Māt. Es – noguris medīdams, sirds mana sāp. Ko novēli Mīļai, Kungs Randāl, mans dēls? Ko novēli viņai, ak, mīļotais mans? Lai sadeg tā ellē, klāj gultu drīz , Māt. Es – mīlēdams noguris, sirds mana sāp. (Iekļauts skatuves skicē "Mīļotais un Mīļotā" 2012.) The Cruel Sister (Scottish ballad) There lived a lady by the North Sea shore Two daughters were the babes she bore One grew as fair as in the sun So cold, dark, grew the elder one A knight came riding to the ladies' door He travelled far to be their wooer He courted one with gloves and rings But the other he loved above all things "Oh, sister, sister won't you walk with me To see the ships sail o'er sea" And as they walked the windy shore The dark girl pushed her sister o'er Sometimes she sank, sometimes she swam Crying "Sister, reach to me your hand Oh sister, sister please let me live And all that's mine I'll surely give "It's your own true love I want, and more That thou shalt never come ashore" And as she floated like a swan The salt sea bore her body on Two minstrels walked by the windy strand They saw her body float to land They made a harp of her breast bone Who's sound would melt a heart of stone They took three strands of her yellow hair And with them strung this harp so rare They took this harp to her father's hall There to play before them all But when they set the harp upon a stone It began to play alone The first song sang a doleful sound "The bride her younger sister drowned" The second string, when this they tried In terror sits the black haired bride The third string sang beneath their bow "And now her tears will surely flow Cietsirdīgā Māsa (Skotu balāde) Reiz ziemeļkrastā vējainā Reiz ziemeļkrastā vējainā Div’ karaļmeitas dzīvoja. Fa la la la la la la la la lai Ar gaišiem matiem – Saulīte, Bet otra – tumšā - Oglīte. Stalts Bru’ņnieks pilī piestājis Bij’ abas māsas redzējis. Viņš sniedza Oglei gredzenu, Bet otrai – sirdi atdeva. Ak, māsiņi mīļo, - Ogle teic, - Nāc, vēju krastā uzkāpsim. Nāc , vēju krastā uzkāpsim Un kuģiem jūrā pamāsim. – Kad abas krastā uzkāpa, Tad tumšā gaišo pagrūda. Lūdz Saulīt slīkstot palīgu, - Ak, Oglīt mīļā, pasaudzē! Jel , Oglīt mīļā, pasaudzē! Ko vēlies tev(īm) atdošu. Bet atbild viņai Oglīte! Ko atbild viņai Oglīte? - Tev ,Saulīt, roku nesniegšu, Un Mīļā mīlu atgūšu. Tad jūra sāļā aprija To meiteni, ko gūstīja. Uz dzīrēm lūgti dziedoņi, Tie redzēj’ krastā slīkoni. No kauliem arfu darīja, No matiem stīgas nopina. Uz pili viņi nogāja, Kur tobrīd kāzas svinēja. Ai, saldas dziesmas spēlēja Šī arfa – jūras dāvana. Bet kad to vienu atstāja, Tā pati vējā dziedāja. Tās pirmā stīga raudāja, - Ak, māsiņ Oglīt, kādēļ tā? Tās otrā stīga raudāja, - Kam grūdi mani jūriņā? Tās otrā stīga raudāja, - Kam manu Mīļo atņēmi? (Iekļauts skatuves skicē "Mīļotais un Mīļotā" 2012.)  |

Ballad. Scharborough Fair
Are you going to Scarborough Fair?
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme;
Remember me to one who lives there,
For once she was a true love of mine.
Tell her to make me a cambric shirt,
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme;
Without any seam or needlework,
Then she shall be a true lover of mine.
Tell her to wash it in yonder well,
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme;
Where never spring water or rain ever fell,
And she shall be a true lover of mine.
Tell her to dry it on yonder thorn,
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme;
Which never bore blossom since Adam was born,
Then she shall be a true lover of mine.
Now he has asked me questions three,
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme;
I hope he'll answer as many for me
Before he shall be a true lover of mine.
Tell him to buy me an acre of land,
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme;
Betwixt the salt water and the sea sand,
Then he shall be a true lover of mine.
Tell him to plough it with a ram's horn,
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme;
And sow it all over with one pepper corn,
And he shall be a true lover of mine.
Tell him to shear it with a sickle of leather,
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme;
And bind it up with a peacock feather.
And he shall be a true lover of mine.
Tell him to thrash it on yonder wall,
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme,
And never let one corn of it fall,
Then he shall be a true lover of mine.
When he has done and finished his work.
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme:
Oh, tell him to come and he'll have his shirt,
And he shall be a true lover of mine.

Skārboro
gadatirgus
( Brīvs pārlikums )Uz Skārboro gad’tirgu sūtīšu jūs,
Mētras, mirtes, rozes, kas
žūst.
Jautājiet Mīļai, kad
satiksiet viņu,
Kad tā mana mīļotā kļūs.
Kad bez stellēm audusi
būs,
Mētras, mirtes, rozes, kas
žūst,
Gultas klāju no
zvaigžņotas debess,
Tad tā mana mīļotā kļūs.
Kad bez ceļa gājusi būs,
Mētras, mirtes, rozes, kas
žūst,
Jasmīna ziedlapu putenī
saldā,
Tad tā mana mīļotā kļūs.
Uz Skārboro gad’tirgu
dodaties jūs,
Mētras, mirtes, rozes, kas
žūst,
Jautājiet Mīļam , kad
satiksiet viņu,
Kad tas mans mīļotais
kļūs.
Kad bez cirvja darījis
būs,
Mētras, mirtes, rozes, kas
žūst,
Mēness tiltu pār plaš(aj)o
jūru,
Tad tas mans mīļotais
kļūs.
Kad bez laivas kuģojis
būs,
Mētras, mirtes, rozes, kas
žūst,
Mīlas buru uzvilcis baltu,
Tad tas mans mīļotais būs.
Vai uz Skārboro gad’tirgu
jūs,
Mētras, mirtes, rozes, kas
žūst?
Pieminiet visus, kas lūdza
pirms manis,
Pieminiet tos, kuri
lūdzēji būs.
