The Whistler

Jethro Tull

Transposer:

transcribed by Peter Eybert {} I’ll buy you six bay mares to put in your stable six golden apples bought with my pay. I am the first piper who calls the sweet tune but I must be gone by the seventh day. So come on I’m the whistler. I have a fife and a drum to play. Get ready for the whistler. I whistle along on the seventh day whistle along on the seventh day. u> Fsus2/Cu>Gu>Fsus All kinds of sadness I’ve left behind me. Many’s the day when I have done wrong. But I’ll be yours for ever and ever. Climb in the saddle and whistle along. So come on I’m the whistler. I have a fife and a drum to play. Get ready for the whistler. I whistle along on the seventh day whistle along on the seventh day. u> > /u>u> Deep red are the sunsets in mystical places. Black are the nights on summerday sands. We’ll find the speck of truth in each riddle. Hold the first grain of love in our hands. So come on I’m the whistler. I have a fife and a drum to play. Get ready for the whistler. I whistle along on the seventh day whistle along on the seventh day. N.C. So come on I’m a whistler. I have a fife and a drum to play. Get ready for the whistler. I whistle along on the seventh day whistle along on the seventh day. u> > /u>u> = x33011

La chanson évoque un personnage qui se présente comme un flûtiste, offrant des présents somptueux tout en jouant une mélodie enjouée. Il évoque un sentiment de légèreté, de renouveau et la promesse de l'amour éternel, malgré ses erreurs passées. L'idée de partir au bout de sept jours symbolise une forme de passage, comme si une transformation ou un nouveau départ devait avoir lieu. Le contexte met en avant une notion de quête et de réflexions sur la vérité et l'amour, intégrant des images évocatrices de paysages mystiques et de contrastes entre la lumière et l'obscurité. Cela rappelle les cycles de la vie et l'importance de saisir les moments précieux tout en continuant d'avancer.
