lyrics
O woman there, beside the shore
Reach out your hand
To see if I am still able
To swim a stroke
Have you no pity for a woman drowning?
Or none at all, care little for her?
In your place, tonight I will be
In your blankets, soft and snow white
And bid farewell to my three children
One a year old, and two the other
and the third still being suckled
and the third was being suckled
and bid farewell to my three brothers
they'll be through here tomorrow morn
and they will find me lying drowned
my brown curls in the salt sea
my breast milk amongst the weeds

One of my favourite albums of 2022. The rich mixture of traditional musics with field recordings and experimentation fit hand in glove. With its long form passages, there is a beautiful surprise around every corner as the music wends its way along its watery course. Teedubyabee
