Lammermoor (Evening)

from Time out of Mind - On the Border by Gordon Mooney

/

about

This is a second arrangement of this tune played on the Border pipes with bassoon and fiddle accompaniment. At the end of the day the sunsets in the Border sky can be astounding as reds, blues, golds and silvers mix over the timeless land. Then as night falls and the wind rises Reivers may be afoot.....

Last night a wind from Lammermoor came roaring up the glen,
With the tramp of trooping horses and the laugh of reckless men,
And struck a mailed hand on the gate and cried in rebel glee,
"Come forth, Come forth, my Borderer, and ride the March with me!"
I said , "Oh! Wind of Lammermoor, the night's too dark to ride,
And all the men that fill the glen are ghosts of men that died!
The floods are down in Bowmont Burn, the moss is fetlock deep,
Go back, Wild Wind of Lammermoor, to Lauderdale - and sleep!"

From the Raiders- by Will H. Ogilvie (1920)
