The Queen of Argyll - James Brennan (Silly Wizard cover)

One of the best songs ever written by Andy M. Stewart and certainly one of Silly Wizard's most popular. This has been a favorite of mine for many years...

𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓠𝓾𝓮𝓮𝓷 𝓸𝓯 𝓐𝓻𝓰𝔂𝓵𝓵 (Silly Wizard)
Gentlemen it is me duty,
To inform you of one beauty.
Though I'd ask of you a favor,
Not to seek her for a while.
Though I own she is a creature,
Of character and feature,
No words can paint the picture,
Of the Queen of all Argyll.
And if you could have seen her there.
Boys, if you had just been there.
The swan was in her movements,
And the morning in her smile.
All the roses in the garden,
They bow and ask her pardon,
For not one could match the beauty,
Of the Queen of all Argyll.
On the evening that I mentioned,
I passed with light intention,
Through a part of our dear country,
Known for beauty and for style.
In the place of noble thinkers,
Of scholars and great drinkers,
But above them all for splendor,
Shone the Queen of all Argyll.
And if you could have seen her there...
So my lads I needs must leave you.
My intentions no' to grieve you.
Nor indeed would I deceive you.
Oh I'll see you in a while.
I must find some way to gain her,
To court her and attain her,
I fear my heart's in danger,
From the Queen of all Argyll!
And if you could have seen her there...

Great cover! Do you plan to cover any more Silly WIzard songs? Like the Lament for the Fisherman's Wife?

Thank you! I do have some more Silly Wizard songs in the works! “Blackbird” is one for sure!
