1   Um dia, que enfim virá,
     Ao ver meu glorioso Rei,
     Então eu vou compreender
     As lágrimas que derramei.

        Confia, sim, em teu bom Deus,
        Não temas, Ele é capaz;
        Na dor não deixes de louvar,
        Um dia tu entenderás.

2   Irei então lá concluir
     O que aqui já comecei;
     Deus vai enfim me explicar,
     Mistérios eu entenderei.

        Confia, sim, em teu bom Deus,
        Não temas, Ele é capaz;
        Na dor não deixes de louvar,
        Um dia tu entenderás.

3   Por que aquilo aconteceu?
     Eu finalmente vou saber;
     Por que cessaram as canções?
     Um dia vou compreender.

        Confia, sim, em teu bom Deus,
        Não temas, Ele é capaz;
        Na dor não deixes de louvar,
        Um dia tu entenderás.

4   Por que o que desejo mais,
     Às vezes é só ilusão?
     Por que fracassam planos meus?
     Deus me dará compreensão.

        Confia, sim, em teu bom Deus,
        Não temas, Ele é capaz;
        Na dor não deixes de louvar,
        Um dia tu entenderás.

5   Deus sabe os detalhes meus,
     E me conduz com Sua mão;
     Um dia me confortará,
     E eu entenderei então.

        Confia, sim, em teu bom Deus,
        Não temas, Ele é capaz;
        Na dor não deixes de louvar,
        Um dia tu entenderás.

Um Dia Tu Entenderás - Hino 715

Don't Abandon All Hope

PARADOXXX

All our own work, though in different centuries. I wrote the words in the 1980s during our Welsh period (see pic); Maz put them to music in the 2020s. It weaves together three of our favourite strings:  folk song, poetry and The Matter of (Celtic) Britain. Welcome to the long glories of Arthurian legend narrated in the style of ancient Welsh alliterative verse as they come to their tragic sunset, imbued with pagan-Christian mysticism and Celtic myths of the cycle of the seasons, and all from the point of view of Gwenhwyfar ( joined by Bedwyr, a dwindling Round Table and the centuries of elegising bards after the early bridge) A deeply Celtic and very different Gwenhwyfar from the French romance courtly minx we evoke in  "Lady Guinevere"

And Medraut gnawed through the golden years
Myrddin called a threshold to the dark,
And its beacon. Medraut, eyes on me
Like a dog’s on the moon, snapping his moment.
To Camlann the coastland, carried me off.
Gone my Beloved, my Beloved I mourn.

Instrumental Bridge "Into The Dark"

And little the faith I had yet in Arthur,
The Angel campaigner, strong as light,
His sun-bright stars above the wicked forest
Seeming to fade. Rusty the scabbard,
Still magic the sword. And, once more, he came.
I’ve believed too little. I make my Confession.

At last I understood. The flincher from spears,
Medraut, was part of Arthur, his shadow,
Chancel and gargoyle had to be cancelled
Where all deeds are drowned, all swords returned:
Avalon. And I’ll run no more.
I’ve believed too little. I make my Confession.

Night and this nunnery will fall. Ravens
Will flock on the gore. Let others keep
A glimmer, a glorious page, of Logres alight
Until the dawn. My confession’s done.
Still my heart waits for hoofbeats.
(Still, my heart waits for hoofbeats…)

Gwenhwyfar

Part celebration of traditional English/British folk music and festival, part heart-singing pagan hymn (Oh Come All Ye Folkful?) but above all having some fun (mostly at our own expense) this is our BRAND NEW ONE, rehearsed and gigged and lived since the run up to Christmas and OUT TODAY. We've adapted two of the lyric verses to fit the instruments we have in our repertoire including on this occasion leader of the JD BIG BAND John Davies on sexy sax and his bonnie lassie Kathleen on guest drum roll on the drum verse. (They also have a little married duet of sax and drum roll in the play out.) It was an absolute treat to play live with them at Burns Night and to have their jelly roll jazz ( it's probably swing but you know where I and it's coming from) as part of our folk minstrel one. You can watch a film of us playing this track live with the JD Big Band and the Ecclefechan Tarts Orchestra and Choir last week at our annual Burns Night supper on YouTube film The Full Rabbie which premieres tonight at 7.30 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ioIP6Qt5hw

Come all ye rolling minstrels
And together, we will try
To rouse the spirit of the earth
And move the rolling sky

Those that dance, will start to dance
And those who don't will stay
In time to list our merry tune
That we play for you today

So, come all ye rolling minstrels
And together we will try
To rouse the spirit of the earth
And move the rolling sky

Our tooter, he just loves to toot
Upon his common flute
Recorder by another name
Much better with a mute.

So, come all ye rolling minstrels
And together we will try
To rouse the spirit of the earth
And move the rolling sky

Possessor of our sax appeal (see picture)
And no old folkie he
Folk is just some wayward notes
Jazz a wayward key.

So, come all ye rolling minstrels
And together we will try
To rouse the spirit of the earth
And move the rolling sky

Sound of beating on the drum
Song behind you'll hear
And to the rhythm of guitar
We hope you'll lend an ear

So, come all ye rolling minstrels
And together we will try
To rouse the spirit of the earth
And move the rolling sky

Well, the man who plays the bass does make
Those low notes that you hear
And the high notes come from you and me
For we will sing so clear

So, come all ye rolling minstrels
And together we will try
To rouse the spirit of the earth
And move the rolling sky

Come All Ye (A Folk Song)

An acoustic version live in the front room of this wonderful David Francey song (following the version by Leslie and Miller) with the amps off and a bespoke foot bodhran in place of the big bass drum. With bells on the instrumental bridge. youtu.be/PBL_l0p5ukQ  Some call this an anti-hymn but we've always found it a genuinely spiritual song carrying the real message of all faiths out to everyone and suffering humanity's yearnings for truth and love rather than the dogma and parrotry which often poses in its stead , which is rather the point we thought. It is after all a very long way from heaven to Bethlehem. The picture is the ceiling of Ely cathedral in December. 

Verse 1]
It was Sunday morning in our town
And I sat on they steps and I stared at the ground
And I bowed my head while they shuffled past
All the saints being called to the morning mass

[Chorus]
And off in the distance there rang a bell
Way off in the distance there rang a bell
And it rang for saints and the sinners as well
Way off in the distance there rang a bell

[Verse 2]
I remember the lessons of Sunday school
And I can't help but think, maybe I'm the fool
But I see no sign of a greater plan
Just the joy and sorrow of my fellow man

[Chorus]
And off in the distance there rang a bell
Way off in the distance there rang a bell
And it rang for saints and the sinners as well
Way off in the distance there rang a bell

[Bridge]
And here we stand while life rushes past
Between the first breath and the last
And here we stand between East and West
And here we stand between birth and death


[Verse 3]
I was watching the news the other night
There was a war on the Left, there was a war on the Right
And it's no surprise that it's us or them
It's a long way from heaven to Bethlehem

[Chorus]
And off in the distance there rang a bell
Way off in the distance there rang a bell
And it rang for saints and the sinners as well
Way off in the distance there rang a bell

Gregory

This was performed by a gospel duo called The Two Gospel Keys - Emma Daniels (vocals and guitar) and Mother Sally Jones (vocals and tambourine) - and released on 78-rpm in 1948.

It was subsequently performed and recorded by such reverend gospellers as Sister Rosetta Tharpe (1950) the Original Five Blind Boys of Alabama (1953) the Hightower Brothers (1956) the Reverend Gary Davis (1962) and an English gospel choir called The Rolling Stones -whose version we follow here. (1971).

This was the first song Gaz ever sang in public and he did so at Meher Baba's Tomb in India in 1994, exquisitely backed with a vocal and instrumental brilliance comically out of all proportion to his efforts by a professional American guitar player and singer (who learned her version from a Black female gospel singer).
lyrics
You gotta move
You gotta move
You gotta move, child
You gotta move
Oh, when the Lord get ready
You gotta move
You may be high
You may be low
You may be rich, child
You may be poor
But when the Lord get ready
You gotta move
You see that woman
Who walks the street
You see that police
Upon his beat
But then the Lord get ready
You gotta move
You gotta move
