The Story...
This very warm and sensual love song is a favorite around the campfires. It is an old English folk tune, with words that describe a man gently touching a woman, and as she tells him how much she likes it, she also starts giving him hints as to where she would like to be touched next. Things get more and more amorous as the song progresses, and I've seen many couples become passionate while listening to me play the song! Highly recommemded. Of course, 200 years ago, such arousing lyrics were so shocking that editors replaced them in printed versions with lyrics about finding a parson and getting married. Fortunately, the original more sensuous and arousing lyrics have survived. Pagans have come to love the song as it celebrates the beautiful reproductive forces of nature, and the song seems very appropriate for the holiday of Beltaine. As exciting as the song may be, it remains a soft and mysterious ballad, understated in its intensity, and subtle. In today's shock media culture, it is a refreshing visit to the artistic forms of romance and seduction. Play this one for a loved one some evening, or even a loved-one-hopeful!
