Tags: folk  song  love  marriage  humour  brunei   Description: This song, also known, in different variations, as "No Sir No", "The Spanish Merchant's Daughter", "The Dumb Lady", and "No, no, not I" seems to have originated as a bawdy ballad in the seventeenth century. It was published as Consent at Last in Thomas D'Urfey's Wit and Mirth or Pills to Purge Melancholy in 1700. The bowdlerised version I sing was collected by Cecil Sharpe. It is performed here with the help of my young friend from Brunei.

We made four videos when she and her mother were visiting us in Hong Kong. This is the third one. Last one will be up later this week. __________________________________________________
