ANGELO BRANDUARDI |
«fables and fantasies» |
The Stolen Bride |
Three long nights and sleep eludes me Wait and watch and listen |
But all I hear is the viper sliding |
And hissing along the river |
There I wrote this song I sing now |
Darkly dressed with sorrow |
About the bride who left her wedding |
Slipped out… none saw none followed. |
No one saw the extra guest |
Beguile her to the threshold |
With smiles and pretty words about the beauty of her dress |
And persuade her from the feasting |
So naive she followed him |
She thought but for a moment |
We waited her return till the candles burnt away |
We searched… but none could find her |
A fiddler present at the wedding |
Was walking out next morning |
When the strange guest appeared before him |
Good day musician said he I know you search for one who’s missing |
Vanished from her wedding |
If you have a brave heart walk behind me And I will lead you to her |
A boat as black as fishes bowels |
He rode 'cross shrowded waters |
Untill they came upon the waxen bride |
In a dress of gold and silver |
She bade the fiddler take her ring |
Back safe to her beloved |
And said here I remain and suffer not the world |
No pain desire or hatred |
The fiddler took the ring and turning |
Had hardly walked but one step |
When he heard a stiffled cry «Forgive me» |
As the misty waters took her |
Shining bright as summer light |
The morning that she married |
What unholy place was she taken to that day |
And by what cold of darkness. |
