endragh it is quite intresting i do hope you post more. i wish i could really hear it insted of just reading it. If you would like to hear it, look for Mrs. McGraw by Jolly Rogers. There a fun sea shanties group. Or, if you would like to hear another great version of the song, look for Mrs. McGrath by Bruce Springsteen. I know, I know, the guy does rock, not sea shanties. Well...this version ROCKS. whee TRUST me.

Hello my fellow SCAdians. sweatdrop I have returned once again to sing a song. This time, this one is called "Westering Home".
Quote: Chorus:Westering home with a song in the air Light of me eye and it's goodbye to care Laughter and love are a welcoming there Pride of me heart my own love [or: Isle of heart, my own one] Tell me a tale of the orient gay Tell me of riches that come from Cathay Ah but it's grand to be waken at day And find oneself nearer to Isla ChorusWhere are the folks like the folks of the west Canty and couthy and kindly, our best There I would hie me and there I would rest At hame wi' my ain folks in Isla ChorusNow I'm at home and at home I do lay Dreaming of riches that come from Cathay I'll hop a good ship and be on my way And bring back my fortune to Isla Chorus
Hope you enjoyed that one. *bows*

"Westering Home" is an old sea shanty and "hauling" song that comes to us from the British Isles. This song falls under the catagory of a "Traditional" song, as its origin is undecernable, though many famous bands have done this song justice over the years.
Individuals such as Sir Hugh Roberton who was conductor of the famous Glasgow Orpheus Choir, and the amazingly fun Pirate rock Band calling themselves the Jolly Rogers.

Naito_Mitsukai hey! does anyone know that song *forget what it's called* it's about a boy growing up, and becoming a night ... and i think one of the lines is "i will live by my oath 'till i die" i think ... and it's kinda repetative, with only a few things changing in the chorus does anyone know what i'm talking about sweatdrop cuz i really want to learn that song!! whee heart I know that song. It's one of my favourite bardic songs. It is called Born on the Listfield, and I am sure there are many who would be able to teach it to you. However, it is my understanding that the creator of the song wished it to not be written down, only passed along by voice. smile

Tahnk-you!! and yes, as i understand it, it was an experiment to see how far it would get passed along, and to see how much it would change (i believe there's at least 2 versions one from a female, one from a male prespective, and also there's two slight variaions on the tune, and some veriations on some of the lyrics themselves) but i believe that it's allowed to be written down now! (as in the experiment was over) at least that's my understanding *talking to some people about it* but yeah i really want to learn it blaugh

Oh I have the heart of a warrior!
And although I am low-born, I hope one day I'll be sworn
To be a knight, so I can fight to serve my lord. Three years ago at Pennsic, especailly around the barn, you couldn't adjust your tunic without someone singing that. It got to the point that I would respond with Quote: For I have the heart of a warrior On a jar on my desktop glinting in the light And I shake it when I'm bored I never got any further than that, because I respond to people with axes politely asking me to stop. sweatdrop
