Testo Della Canzone
Mountain Men di Jethro Tull
Crest of a Knave |
|
The poacher and his daughter throw soft shadows on the water in the night.
A thin moon slips behind them as they pull the net with no betraying light. And later on the coast road, I meet them and the old man winks a smile. And who am I to fast deny the right to take a fish once in a while? I walk with them, they wish me luck when I ship out on the Sunday from the kyle. And from the church I hear them singing as the ship moves sadly from the pier. Oh, poacher’s daughter, Sunday best, two hundred brave souls share the farewell tear. There’s a house on the hillside, where the drifting sands are born. Lay down and let the slow tide wash me back to the land where I came from. Long generations from the Isles There’s a child and a woman praying for an end to the mystery.
