The Kelpie [Italian translation]
I
There was a warm wind
with the high tide
On the south side of the hill
When a young girl
went a-walking
And I followed with a will
II
"Good day to you,
my fine young lady
With your lips, so sweetly full"
"May I help you comb (1)
your long hair?
Sweep it from that brow, so cool"
CHORUS
Up, ride with the kelpie (2)
I'll steal your soul to the deep
If you don't ride with me
while the devil's free
I'll ride with somebody else
III
"Well, I'm a man when I'm feeling
The urge to step ashore
So, I may charm you, not alarm you
Tell you all fine things and more (3)
[CHORUS]
IV
Say goodbye to all your dear kin
For they hate to see you go
In your young prime (4)
to this place of mine
In the still loch far below"
[CHORUS]
