Dumbarton's Drums is a traditional Scottish song. There are three versions—the most popular is this one: Dumbarton’s Drums '' Chorus'' Dumbarton's drums they sound sae bonnie And they remind me o' my Johnnie, Such fond delight doth steal upon me When Johnnie kneels and kisses me.'' Across the fields o' boundin' heather Dumbarton tolls the hour of pleasure, A song of love that's without measure When Johnnie sings his sangs tae me. '' Chorus'' 'Tis he alone that can delight me His rovin' eye, it doth invite me, And when his tender arms enfold me The blackest night doth turn and flee. '' Chorus'' My Johnnie is a handsome laddie And though he is Dumbarton's caddie, Some day I'll be a captain's lady When Johnnie tends his vows tae me. ''Chorus'' There is a male version, with "Johnnie" changed to "Jeannie" and the last verse omitted, which has been recorded by ''The Corries''. However the original version as collected and recorded by Burns is to a different tune, a brisk march which was recorded by the Glasgow Orpheus Choir. It also has different words which were the basis for the popular song. "Dumbarton's Drums" is the march of The Royal Scots, but this is a quick march, a different tune from the folk song. ==See also== *George Douglas, 1st Earl of Dumbarton *Dumbarton 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dumbarton's Drums」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
