On every winter’s evening
He’s playing for the queen and king
When Yuletide’s here, the people
cheer:
"Come on and tune up your strings."
You hear the joyful bells, they ring
They’re waiting to hear the fiddle
sing
Our maestro’s hiding from the stage
He won’t play a single thing
Cause one last winter’s evening
His sweetheart left our fiddler lad
His heart froze cold and evеn now
No one can warm it up.
And now the Christmas time is coming
round today
Hе’s wondering: Why oh why doesn’t it come my way?
Oh where’s my soulmate waiting for my
snowy heart?
If so make sure no one can keep us
apart!
Now, all you people, hush and listen
We’re gonna find the one that’s
missing!
Our fiddler boy, he’s oh so blue
It hurts to see him low
Come, everyone, and saddle your
horses
We’ll look for Eilidh Goldenrose
The miller took her as his wife –
She was not to refuse.
They found poor Eilidh hiding
Cause she ran away from the miller
Now the fiddler and his Goldenrose
Are finally together
And now at last he starts to bow
All come to hear the fiddler’s sound
And every lad he grabs a gall
And spins her round and round.
And now the Christmas time is coming
round today
He’s finally coming out so we can
hear him play!
He has his soulmate and he has a
warmed up heart
Now let’s make sure no one can keep
them apart!
Now there’s so much in his heart
That a true artiste will show
And still when the party’s over
His soul is chanting on.
We're back in Advent
which means I no longer need an excuse to play this at full volume - thanks
Patty!
