[00:24.78]There lived a lady by the North Sea shore
[00:29.10] (Lay the bent to the bonnie broom)
[00:33.03] Two daughters were the babes she bore
[00:35.55] (Fa la la la la la la la la la)
[00:48.06] alternating with each of the lines below>
[00:48.93] As one grew bright as is the sun,
[00:49.98] So coal black grew the elder one.
[00:58.41] A knight came riding to the lady's door,
[01:06.78] He'd travelled far to be their wooer.
[01:15.93] He courted one with gloves and rings,
[01:24.09] But he loved the other above all things.
[01:42.21] Oh sister will you go with me
[01:45.00] To watch the ships sail on the sea?
[01:55.47] She took her sister by the hand
[01:57.87] And led her down to the North Sea strand.
[01:59.19] And as they stood on the windy shore
[02:07.53] The dark girl threw her sister o'er.

[02:29.04] "Oh Sister, Sister, let me live,
[02:31.05] And all that's mine I'll surely give."
[02:31.95] "(It's) your own true love that I'll have and more,
[02:33.06] But thou shalt never come ashore."
[02:34.20] And there she floated like a swan,
[02:42.60] The salt sea bore her body on.
[03:09.48] Two minstrels walked along the strand
[03:18.12] And saw the maiden float to land.
[03:28.68] They made a harp of her breastbone,
[03:30.42] Whose sound would melt a heart of stone.
[03:44.49] They took three locks of her yellow hair,
[03:52.80] And with them strung the harp so rare.
[04:38.07] They went into her father's hall
[04:39.51] To play the harp before them all,
[04:40.56] But when they laid it on a stone
[04:49.11] The harp began to play alone.
[04:57.00] The first string sang a doleful sound:
[05:02.40] "The bride her younger sister drowned."
[05:11.82] The second string as that they tried,
[05:12.54] In terror sits the black-haired bride.
[05:13.74] The third string sang beneath their bow,
