Folk Song's Fascinating Words

Folk music is a reflection of the history of music through the ages, to modern day. Many of the great classical composers have drawn on folk tunes for inspiration for their symphonies and other great works. Similarly, the lyrics of folk songs provide a history of love, hate, politics and social change from the earliest days to the present. Hear is just one example:-

"The Holy Ground - - Adieu my fair young maidens, - A thousand times adieu - We must bid goodbye to the Holy Ground, - The place that we love true - We will sail the salt seas over - And return again for sure - To seek the girls that wait for us, - In the Holy Ground once more. - Refrain: - Fine girl you are, - You're the girl that I do adore, - And still I live in hope to see, - The Holy ground once more - Fine girl you are! - 2. We're on the salt sea sailing - And you are safe behind - Fond letters I will write to you, - The secrets of my mind - Fond letters I will write to you, - The girl I do adore - And still I live in hope to see, - The Holy ground once more.
