(the corries)
yestreen Queen Mary had four Maries,
this night she’ll hae but three;
she had Mary Seaton, and Mary Beaton,
and Mary Carmichael, and me…
(mcilroys)
arise arise Mary Hamilton
arise and tell to me
what thou hast done with thy wee babe
I saw and heard weep by thee…
(joan baez)
I put him in a tiny boat
and cast him out to sea
that he might sink or he might swim
but he’d never come back to me
(marie laforêt)
toutes les femmes ont dans leur vie
un marin, un mari
qu’elles attendent ou qu’elles oublient
Mary Hamilton aussi
elles attendent, je les envie
j’envie Mary hamilton aussi…
(jeannie robertson)
yestreen there was four Maries
this nacht will hae but three
there’s Mary Seaton and Mary Beaton
and Mary Carmichael and me…
(branduardi)
l’hanno detto giù nelle cucine
tutta la casa lo sa
che ieri lei aveva un bambino
e che oggi lei non l’ha più…
l’ho addormentato nella culla
e l’ho affidato al mare
che lui si salvi o vada perduto
e mai più non ritorni da me…
le nouveau-né, elle l’enrule
du papier de journal d’hier
qu’il reste un esclave ou qu’il divienne roi
mais que jamais je ne le revoi…

another great video Fabio, I enjoyed very much your interpretation of my suggestion
I always need at least 2 times to see everything (a little like a concert of angelo), first I follow the lyrics and the info about the artists, and then I take the time to look at the beautiful images you used.
It was a great pleasure!!

MARY HAMILTON
commento di Riccardo Venturi
La ricerca della Mary Hamilton storica si è rivelata appassionante, ma non ha portato ad alcun risultato concreto. Esisteva in effetti un gruppo di ancelle di Maria Stuarda, chiamato popolarmente “Le quattro Marie”, ma non ne faceva parte alcuna Mary Hamilton. Il suo delitto ed il suo castigo, tuttavia, sembrano ricalcare uno scandalo avvenuto

“Last night I wash’d the queen’s feet,
An gently laid her down;
And a the thanks Ive gotten the night,
To be hangd in Edinbro town.
“Last nicht there was four Maries,
The nicht there’l bee bit three;
There was Marie Seton, an Marie Beton,
And Marie Carmichael, and me.”

Word’s gane to the kitchen,
And word’s gane to the ha
That Mary Hamilton gangs wi bairn
To the hichest Stewart of a.
He’s courted her in the kitchen,
He’s courted her in the ha,
He’s courted her in the laigh cellar
And that was warst of a!
