Hello! I'm Lyrkit!

I tried many ways to memorize English words and found the most effective one for me!

We already have all the words of the songs that we have heard throughout our lives in our memory. We simply did not pay attention to them, but we all already hear them!

I noticed that when you learn a new word from a song that you have already heard before, you already know the translation of this word forever and you will never forget it!

I want to share this method with you. So, the scheme is as follows.

We find songs that we have already heard.

We add all unfamiliar words from them.

We pass mini tests of memory games. done

Now that you know a lot of words, you will very quickly come to know the whole language!

I bet you'll be surprised how effective this method is!)

The Nancy

 

The Nancy

(album: From Fresh Water - 1984)


What clothes men wear do give them airs, the fellows do compare
A colonel's regimentals shine, and women call him fair
I am Alexander MacIntosh, nephew to the Laird
And I do disdain men who are vain, the men with powdered hair

I command the Nancy Schooner from the Moy on Lake St. Claire
On the third day of October, boys, I did set sail from there
To the garrison at Amherstburg I quickly would repair
With Captain Maxwell and his wife and kids and powdered hair

Aboard the Nancy
In regimentals bright
Aboard the Nancy
With all his pomp and bluster there, aboard the Nancy-o

Below the St. Clair rapids I sent scouts unto the shore
To ask a friendly Whyandot to say what lay before
"Amherstburg has fallen, with the same for you in store
And militia sent to take you there, fifty horse or more"

Well up comes Captain Maxwell then, "Surrender, now, I say
Give up your Nancy schooner and make off without delay
Set me ashore, I do implore. I will not die this day!"
Says I, "You go, or get below, for I'll be on my way!"

Aboard the Nancy
"Surrender, Hell!" I say
Aboard the Nancy
"It's back to Mackinac I'll fight, aboard the Nancy-o"

Well up comes Colonel Beaubien, then, who shouts as he draws near
"Give up your Nancy schooner and I swear you've naught to fear
We've got your Captain Maxwell, sir, spare yourself his tears"
Says I, "I'll not but send you shot to buzz about your ears"

We fired as we hove anchor, boys, and we got under way
But scarce a dozen broadsides, boys, the Nancy did them pay
Before the business sickened them. They bravely ran away
All sail we made, and reached the Lake before the close of day

Aboard the Nancy
We sent them shot and cheers
Aboard the Nancy
We watched them running through the trees, aboard the Nancy-o

Oh, military gentlemen, they bluster, roar and pray
Nine sailors on the Nancy, boys, made fifty run away
The powder in their hair that day was powder sent their way
By poor and ragged sailor men, who swore that they would stay

Aboard the Nancy
Six pence and pound a day
Aboard the Nancy
No uniform for men to scorn, aboard the Nancy-o
...

done
