The Lamb and the Shepherd (It is raining, oh, how beautiful it is)

Song

It is raining, oh, it is raining beautifully, ; He comes to Baron Endre's room. ; A shepherd boy, oh, it is raining beautifully, ; It is heard at Baron Endre's window. ; ; Baron Endre has his horse saddled, ; He walks around his dearest farm. ; He asks the shepherd boy's mother, crying, ; Has she seen the young lady anywhere. ; ; - Baron, I tell you the truth, ; I haven't seen your groom in two weeks. ; I haven't seen your groom in two weeks, ; Maybe the young lady is with him. ; ; Baron Endre sends a carriage for his daughter, ; Nine gendarmes and the shepherd boy for the groom. ; The young lady sits in the carriage in the front, ; The shepherd boy is still tied up in the back. ; ; Oh, how beautifully they carved that tree, ; On whose chest they hang a shepherd's staff. ; The wind blows her black curly hair, ; Because she loved Baron Endrë's spear. ; ; It rains, alas, but it drips beautifully, ; She cries bitterly into the Baron's daughter's room. ; - My God, why did I become a Baron's daughter, ; Why didn't I become a shepherd's boy's baby. ; ; I won't go out on the street anymore, ; Because they say I love a shepherd's boy. ; Black mourning, my white silk handkerchief, ; My first lover was a shepherd's boy.
