Beacon on the Hill
Quelle: Spotify
The drums are sounding in the night
The Valley is so still
And in the dark the beacons bright
Burn fiercely on the hill
So fare thee well, my Polly girl
I can no longer stay
For peace is gone and war is come
And we must march away
The farmers laid aside his plough
The sheperd boy his crook
And at the Church they're gathered now
To kiss the Holy Book
So fare thee well, my Polly girl
I can no longer stay
For peace is gone and war is come
And we must march away
The air is filled with martial cries
And the sound of marching feet
The villagers have left their beds
And gathered in the street
So fare thee well, my Polly girl
I can no longer stay
For peace is gone and war is come
And we must march away
Don't ask why I must leave you, love –
Don't ask why we must go
It's not a soldier's job to ask –
It's better we don't know!
So fare thee well, my Polly girl
I can no longer stay
For peace is gone and war is come
And we must march away
