Sit Thi Deawn Lyrics – The Houghton Weavers
Singer: The Houghton Weavers
Title: Sit Thi Deawn
There’s a cosy little place I know
Lies just inside of Howfen
Who’s praises I will sing to you in rhyme
Where lives my dear owd grandad
And my granny too, god bless ’em
And many an hour I’ve spent theer in my time
They have a little garden
And a slap up little greenhouse
Where grandad passes many an hour away
He’s happy and contented
Among his plants and flowers
And if I should pop in, he’s sure to say…
Ay mon I’m fain to see thi, sit thi deawn
I’m as fain as if thed give me half a crown
Neaw you munna go away
Tha mun stop and have tha tay
Fer I’m gradely fain to see thi sit thi deawn
God bless their silver yeds
They are both very owd and feeble
They’re getting very near their journeys’ end
But still I feel quite certain
That when death shall separate ’em
In heaven above their lives again will blend
They’ve always been contented
They’ve tried to do their duty
No beggar from their door’s been turned away
However ragged and tattered
He’s always asked ’em inside
And then he with a smile to them would say…
Ay mon I’m fain to see thi, sit thi deawn
I’m as fain as if thed give me half a crown
Neaw you munna go away
Tha mun stop and have tha tay
Fer I’m gradely fain to see thi sit thi deawn
I think we might a lesson learn
From this owd pair so humble
And try like them to lead a blameless life
And if we’re ever tempted
To be selfish and hard-hearted
Let’s throw those nasty feelings clean away
Let’s try to do to others
As we’d have ’em do to us
And remember what mi grandad used to say…
Ay mon I’m fain to see thi, sit thi deawn
I’m as fain as if thed give me half a crown
Neaw you munna go away
Tha mun stop and have tha tay
Fer I’m gradely fain to see thi sit thi deawn
