The Spangle Maker - The Judgement of the Rose lyrics

I worked hard to raise a daughter Who could make her father proud Through obedience to her family And strict adherence to the faith I taught you to follow the rules And to obey the right man. I taught you to honour your body And not cast yourself before the swine I showed you the straight path I had just learned you spoke to a man Out in the streets, in public view This man was the enemy and the invader And a blond-hair, blue-eyed infidel Not only did you speak to this devil But you dared to fall in love with him too. Thus you brought a great plague upon this house And there is only one cure d**h to those who dishonour! How could you have stained me deeply? How could you have embarra**ed me in front of my friends? Have you no sense of decency? Have you lost all virtue and respect? You are no longer my daughter You are no longer a human being And if I had known this day would arise I would have k**ed you the moment you were born d**h to those who dishonour! / I showed you the straight path
