Six Ribbons (Against the Wind/Mot Alla Vindar)

Världens kanske bästa kärleksballad, Six Ribbons är t o m dubbelt så bra som ADIDAS!
Det är ju den här man kommer ihåg från den gamla TVn i barndomen tillsammans med Spartacus, den pampiga, som var temat i Onedinlinjen. Av Aram Chatjaturjan som även skrev andra baletter där t.ex. Sabre Dance ingick...

SIX RIBBONS
(Words and music by Jon English)


If I where a minstrel
I'd sing you six love songs to tell the whole world of the love that we share

If I where a merchant
I'd bring you six diamonds with six blood red roses for my love to wear

But I am a simple man a poor common farmer
So take my six ribbons to tie back your hair
Yellow and brown, blue as the sky, red as my blood, green as your eye.

If I were a nobleman
I'd bring you six palaces with six hundred servants for comforting care
But I am a simple man a poor common farmer
So take my six ribbons to tie back your hair

If I where a minstrel
I'd sing you six love songs to tell the whole world of the love that we share
so be not afraid, my love,
You're never alone, love while you wear my ribbons tie'n back your hair

Once I was a simple man a poor common farmer I gave you six ribbons to tie back your hair

Tooralee, tooralie
All I can share is only six ribbons to tie back your hair

Tooralee, tooralie
All I can share is only six ribbons to tie back your hair

(Jon English, 1980 "Against the Wind")
