Gypsy Hymn

Johnny Flynn

Transposer:

The ferry man brought me with mind open dreaming we cut the depths with laughter. Stayed with my youth that God’s tooth cut when weaning now and ever after. The will of the void is to shape and name forms... our dance was never done then. I remember you well from before you were born my chance was never won then. (2 bars) I burned the sports pages as I already knew the score. Put faith in the fire forever and ever more. Your colours of autumn you’re burnished with gold there and standing in the river. The circle of trees and the full wish we told there truthful as a prison. I looked at the mystery and all she evoked my patron saint stood near her. But the mystery walked and the mystery spoke my saint said "never fear her". (2 bars) Now Mab is my queen oh and Mab is my chief. Mab is my root now my strong trunk and branch to the leaf. The circle remains and still from its past; now waiting now singing now flying half-mast. She is and she’s whole I’ll know love again. I’ll know my song well each dying refrain. Each cadence and twist well-observed in its harmony. Silence come clean pull stillness for our lady. Gypsy hymn sing we slow and tenderly bear me on your west wind blow... your gypsy hymn let me flow and sing me again before you got to go. Sing me again before you got to go.

La chanson évoque un voyage introspectif, où l’artiste évoque des souvenirs d’enfance et des réflexions profondes sur la vie. Il parle de la légèreté des rires et des joies de la jeunesse, tout en évoquant la sagesse et la mélancolie qui l'accompagnent. Les thèmes de la spiritualité et de l’amour se mêlent à des images puissantes de la nature, comme les couleurs d'automne et les rivières, symboles de changement et de continuité. Il y a une quête de sens, une connexion à quelque chose de plus grand, même dans l'incertitude. Le personnage semble chercher la rédemption et l'espoir à travers les épreuves de la vie, tout en célébrant les histoires, les mystères et les présences qui l’entourent. La relation avec Mab, qui représente à la fois la force et la vulnérabilité, témoigne de cette lutte permanente entre l'ombre et la lumière.
