The church where I married my late husband had 2 aisles rather than a single in the center so we decided to have 2 processions, one for him and one for me. This song was his processional for our wedding. It was a special moment and every time I hear this song it brings back that memory. Thanks for posting this.
Gentlemen it is me duty To inform you of one beauty Though I'd ask of you a favour Not to seek her for a while Though I own she is a creature Of character and feature No words can paint the picture Of the queen of all Argyll And if you could have seen her there Boys, if you had just been there The swan was in her movements And the morning in her smile All the roses of the garden Theyd bow to ask her pardon For not one could match the beauty Of the Queen of all Argyll On the evening that I mentioned I passed with light intention Through a part of our dear country Known for beauty and for style ‘Tis a place of noble thinkers Of scholars and great drinkers But none could match the splendour Of the Queen of all Argyll And if you could have seen her there Boys, if you had just been there The swan was in her movements And the morning in her smile All the roses of the garden Theyd bow to ask her pardon For not one could match the beauty Of the Queen of all Argyll So my lads I needs must leave you My intentions not to grieve you Nor indeed would I ‘er deceive you Oh I'll see you in a while I must find some way to gain her To court her and to tame her I fear my heart's in danger From the Queen of all Argyll And if you could have seen her there Boys, if you had just been there The swan was in her movements And the morning in her smile All the roses of the garden Theyd bow to ask her pardon For not one could match the beauty Of the Queen of all Argyll And if you could have seen her there Boys, if you had just been there The swan was in her movements And the morning in her smile All the roses of the garden Theyd bow to ask her pardon For not one could match the beauty Of the Queen of all Argyll
Ziggy could you tell us the words to Lord Randall by Serious Kitchen? I cannot understand all his barrog especially what he left his sister. Also do you think hint when he was asking his mother to make his bed soon he was saying dig my grave?
A version of the lyrics made by myself and a good friend, "The King of Argyle." Fair Maidens it is me duty To inform you of one beauty. Though I'd ask of you a favor Not to seek him for a while. For I own he is a creature Of character and feature, No words could paint a picture Of the King of all Argyle (Chorus) And if you could have seen him there, Girls if you had just been there The sea was in his heartbeat And the morning in his smile. All the stars up in the night sky, They dimmed for they became shy For none could shine as brightly As the King of all Argyle. On the evening that I mention, I passed with light intention, Through a part of our dear country Known for beauty and for style. Tis a place of noble thinkers, Of scholars and big drinkers, But none could match the splendor Of the King of all Argyle (Chorus) Now ladies I needs must leave you, My intentions not to grieve you, Nor would I e'er deceive you, For I'll see you in a while. I must find some way to lay him, To court him and to tame him, I fear my heart's in danger From the King of all Argyle. (Chorus X2) What do you think? It does remain close to this song.
@@abignothingI was thinking that it would be the queen of all Argyll singing about the guy who's singing about her with neither of them knowing it and that would be funny😅😂
One of the best versions of this song. It always makes me think of the Silly Wizard version. I had the pleasure of watching the Bedlam Boys perform all the time back in the old days up in good King Richard's Faire. Ah, now that was a time and place to be alive.
sorry to be off topic but does any of you know of a way to get back into an Instagram account?? I somehow lost my account password. I appreciate any tricks you can offer me
My crush sang this to me recently and said "If I just told you you're beautiful, it wouldn't have the same effect" That immediately made me fall deeper
@@cedricmichael4823 I hope she find out and dumps you faster than a hot potato! Are you kidding me?! Are you seriously here bragging about severely violating your girlfriend's privacy - a girl you "maybe claim" to love, cause I doubt you really do, while doing stuff like that? Not to mention that hacking is very much illegal?! Guys like you make me sick. Reporting you, right now.

Dear Olden Class, I found this lucky timespace, to see, so to speak, the actual real QUEEN of all Argyll..ahnd I found that I was considering nay to ever expand to the full screen feature..........Olde Realm(s) are a' definitely remembered..and honored, and I decided ahnd wished not to expand to the full screen, ahnd so did not, Sir.

nedyak sebrof isn’t Jim Dixon Savageminstral? Savageminstral certainly has done this tune and had loads of tunes here on UA-cam... Search for Savageminstral. If it isn’t him, well you just found a great singer and loads of fine tunes. Xx
Not first, not last, but this music is great. I saw a MAP (queen of Argyll [ Cannon shipping map ] warrior cats ) (I think) and I loved the MAP, and that's how I found this. This song is great! Might animate after it :3
There is a huge difference between the MAP that stands for Multi Animator Project and the nasty one yk?(this is for the guy saying not to use the acronym map)
This version is awesome and gives some good ideas for vocal harmonies. I do think it sticks too much in that minor tonic though. The original uses the major 6th and 7th in the second half for dramatic effect, and I think that is really important and also makes it feel less depressing

Awe, beautiful.
Gentlemen it is me duty
To inform you of one beauty
Though I'd ask of you a favour
Not to seek her for a while
Though I own she is a creature
Of character and feature
No words can paint the picture
Of the queen of all Argyll
And if you could have seen her there
Boys, if you had just been there
The swan was in her movements
And the morning in her smile
All the roses of the garden
Theyd bow to ask her pardon
For not one could match the beauty
Of the Queen of all Argyll
On the evening that I mentioned
I passed with light intention
Through a part of our dear country
Known for beauty and for style
‘Tis a place of noble thinkers
Of scholars and great drinkers
But none could match the splendour
Of the Queen of all Argyll
And if you could have seen her there
Boys, if you had just been there
The swan was in her movements
And the morning in her smile
All the roses of the garden
Theyd bow to ask her pardon
For not one could match the beauty
Of the Queen of all Argyll
So my lads I needs must leave you
My intentions not to grieve you
Nor indeed would I ‘er deceive you
Oh I'll see you in a while
I must find some way to gain her
To court her and to tame her
I fear my heart's in danger
From the Queen of all Argyll
And if you could have seen her there
Boys, if you had just been there
The swan was in her movements
And the morning in her smile
All the roses of the garden
Theyd bow to ask her pardon
For not one could match the beauty
Of the Queen of all Argyll
And if you could have seen her there
Boys, if you had just been there
The swan was in her movements
And the morning in her smile
All the roses of the garden
Theyd bow to ask her pardon
For not one could match the beauty
Of the Queen of all Argyll
Well done!

i love making songs gay too

lol.
instead of lay him, maybe claim him?
I just realized that this could also be what a siren says to her sisters before she goes after a target lol

This song captures being in love so well "the swan was in her movement, and the morning in her smile"
So lovely
This song describes my late wife perfectly!
Sounds like the both of you got lucky. :)
I'm sorry for your loss
One of the best versions of this song. It always makes me think of the Silly Wizard version. I had the pleasure of watching the Bedlam Boys perform all the time back in the old days up in good King Richard's Faire. Ah, now that was a time and place to be alive.

This is my fav song. Sadly it aunt on Spotify also I need a 1 hour version of this.
May I suggest setting up a UA-cam playlist of just this video and setting it to repeat?
look for Silly Wizard if you haven't
I loved this one version. Greetings from Uruguay!!. I said this correctly?
yes you did! good job!
Yo también soy de Uruguay
Yep your English is good for this sentence
Yep. You did. Your English is pretty good. You could definitely come to the US and be understood. Do you want to do that?
sorry to be off topic but does any of you know of a way to get back into an Instagram account??

I had lost this CD years ago and was so sad that I'd been unable to find it. I'm so glad I again have the ability to listen to this talented duo.
My crush sang this to me recently and said "If I just told you you're beautiful, it wouldn't have the same effect" That immediately made me fall deeper
He was wise indeed! :)
I swear
This is such a good song for some kind of Skyrim oc
Me listening on repeat while killing the Emperors cousin.

Skyrims not Celtic,pronnaly still works though.
@@WocklessGamingforAnimeMoms this isnt Celtic either its scottish 😊

The lyrics are not traditional. They are by Andy M. Stewart while he was with Silly Wizard.

This actually is not a 'traditional' song, but was written by Andy Stewart of Silly Wizard.

Never use the acronym MAP.
@@seanhartnett79 i will because it stands for multi animator project

Where can I purchase this version? I absolutely adore it but I can't find it on Spotify or iTunes.

Caballeros, es mi obligación
Informaros de una belleza,
Sin embargo os pediré un favor:
No buscarla por mucho tiempo.
Aunque confieso que ella es una criatura
De naturaleza y carácter.
No hay palabras que puedan describir
A la Reina de todo Argyll.
Y si hubierais podido verla ahí,
Chicos, si sólo hubierais estado allí;
El cisne estaba en sus movimientos
Y la mañana en su sonrisa.
Todas las rosas del jardín
Se inclinan y piden perdón
Por no poder ninguna igualar la belleza
De la Reina de todo Argyll.
En la noche que mencioné
Pasé con intención ligera
Por una zona de nuestro querida región
Conocida por su belleza y su clase.
Siendo un lugar de novedosos pensadores,
De eruditos y grandes pensadores,
Pero todos son superados por el esplendor desprendido
Por la Reina de todo Argyll.
Y si hubierais podido verla ahí,

El cisne estaba en sus movimientos
Y la mañana en su sonrisa.

Se inclinan y piden perdón

Así que, mis amigos, debo dejaros,
Mis intenciones no son apenaros.
En verdad no os engaño,
Oh, os veré un rato.
Debo encontrar un camino para adelantarla,
Para cortejarla y conquistarla.
Me temo que mi corazón está en peligro por
La Reina de todo Argyll.
Y si hubierais podido verla ahí,
Chicos, si sólo hubierais estado allí;
El cisne estaba en sus movimientos
Y la mañana en su sonrisa.
Todas las rosas del jardín
Se inclinan y piden perdón
Por no poder ninguna igualar la belleza

Is this a traditional rythmnic style or more modernized? Feels a bit funky.
It sounds traditional. If you want I can Google it and get back to you.
The original is by Silly Wizard I believe

@@WocklessGamingforAnimeMoms best I can figure it is traditional, so the words probably mutated, but the instruments seem the same.
I'm quite upset I cannot find this version on Tidal...
It can be interesting to train the singer to make the inhales less pronounced. It is not easy, but it will make the song better.
Looks like Rose Byrne there in the pic.
Yuck. Not even close 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️
It must be something in the genes that makes Scottish lads have this kinda love song 😂
Or maybe that in combination with a wee dram?

this sounds like a simon and garfunkle song.
*Argyll
its not a god. its a bard
The Silly Wizard version is much better.
I agree
I think it would be hard to top Silly Wizard, but I found this to be beautiful in a different way.. Awe, so sad that Andy m. Stuart is no longer here (but he's still with us though his music).
