Nettle Wine |
| In my country garden, underneath the mountain |
| With dead-nettles growing all around the door |
| Early every morning the sun comes up the mountain |
| Setting in the sea in the evening once more. |
| Take some water from the brook |
| Wondering who it was that took the stones from the mountain to build the |
| cottage here |
| Two up and two down, miles from the nearest town |
| I wonder who it was but the reason why is clear |
| Take a bunch of nettles, add a little water |
| Drawn from the stream running outside the door |
| Leave it for a month or two, bottle it and drink the brew |
| Watch the suns go down in the sea once more. |
| Take some wood to build a fire |
| Could you really get much higher than standing in the doorway with a glass of |
| nettle wine |
| My lady beside me, the mountain behind me |
| Before me the sea and the red skyline |
