[Celtic Folk Song] Black is the Colour ~ Guitar and Vocal cover 

Saskia Kusrahadianti arranges and sings: Black is the Colour (Of my true love’s hair)
"Black Is the Colour (of My True Love's Hair)"is a traditional folk song first known in the Appalachian Mountains region of the United States in 1915, but most probably originating from Scotland, as attributed to the reference to the Clyde in the song's lyrics…
I have always loved this song, and never really sang it properly.. I should have waited til my voice is recovered from this horrible cough ;__; but I couldn’t wait!
This is a super simple arrangement… I hope you enjoy it!
Lyrics:
Black is the colour of my true love's hair,
Her lips are like some roses fair,
She's the sweetest smile, And
the gentlest hands,
I love the ground, Whereon she stands.
I love my love and well she knows,
I love the ground, whereon she goes,
I wish the day, it soon would come,
When she & I could be as one.
I go to the Clyde and I mourn and weep,
For satisfied, I ne'er can be,
I write her a letter, just a few short lines,
And suffer death, a thousand times.
Black is the colour of my true love's hair,
Her lips are like some roses fair,
She's the sweetest smile, And
the gentlest hands,
I love the ground, Whereon she stands.
