The Ballad of Mary - Grave Digger

My fingers touch the solid stones

Strong and cold, they keep me from home

Imprisoned like a wingless dove

Far away from the land I love

Lonely days count lonely years

I have cried a thousand tears

All that I tried to gain

Is lost the effort was in vain

At Carberry hill I lost my crown

My husband fled my luck went down

In England’s hands I fell

18 years a living hell

The Scottish crown belongs to me

Yet I’m bound I can not flee

With iron claws England holds tight

All is lost no chance to fight

Silence — Silence Everywhere

Cold walls are my reward

Loneliness engulfs my soul

I’ve been true i gave my heart

Stained tears i cried

I long to be free again

To walk in peace again

Scotland cries her queen is lost

Agony’s her friend again
