Auld Weeping Willow

Lyrics
The Dunborough Meadows are keeping a secret of deep mystery They say that the truth has been buried at the root of some dignified tree An old silent witness of gruesome occurrences a long time ago It looks like it withstood a thousand years of tempests and blows The storm is all around Pouring rain and gloomy thunderclouds So hold out Auld Weeping Willow And stand your ground Stand your ground A quirky young maiden grew up in the village, as different as sweet Her name was Cathrine but they all called her Catkin, like the willow tree's seed The Dunborough Meadows have been her favourite playground since she was a child That unlucky place where she's seen for the very last time A late autumn evening, the villagers sat by the flickering lights When someone outside screamed that catkin didn't come back from the meadows tonight And everyone hurried and look out for her, till the torches ran out But neither they found the young lady Nor saw that small sprout In the ground
