    I just read this Bob dylan's song I love

    I Want You

    The guilty undertaker sighs,
    The lonesome organ grinder cries,
    The silver saxophones say I should refuse you.
    The cracked bells and washed-out horns
    Blow into my face with scorn,
    But it's not that way,
    I wasn't born to lose you.
    I want you, I want you,
    I want you so bad,
    Honey, I want you.

    The drunken politician leaps
    Upon the street where mothers weep
    And the saviors who are fast asleep,
    They wait for you.
    And I wait for them to interrupt
    Me drinkin' from my broken cup
    And ask me to
    Open up the gate for you.
    I want you, I want you,
    I want you so bad,
    Honey, I want you.

    Now all my fathers, they've gone down
    True love they've been without it.
    But all their daughters put me down
    'Cause I don't think about it.

    Well, I return to the Queen of Spades
    And talk with my chambermaid.
    She knows that I'm not afraid
    To look at her.
    She is good to me
    And there's nothing she doesn't see.
    She knows where I'd like to be
    But it doesn't matter.
    I want you, I want you,
    I want you so bad,
    Honey, I want you.

    Now your dancing child with his Chinese suit,
    He spoke to me, I took his flute.
    No, I wasn't very cute to him,
    Was I?
    But I did it, though, because he lied
    Because he took you for a ride
    And because time was on his side
    And because I . . .
    I want you, I want you,
    I want you so bad,
    Honey, I want you.

    To be bright of brain, let no man boast,

    Derbyshire dialect isn’t a million miles from Scots really:

    Ey Up Mi Duck! (Hello)

    Here's a few more phrases:

    http://www.wirksworth.org.uk/DIALECT1.HTM

    Sadly dialects are dieing out, to much American slang. I don't really have a Derbyshire lilt me sen but some words creep in now and then.
    I believe that legends and myth are largely made of
    “truth”, and indeed present aspects of it that can only be received in this mode; and long ago certain truths and modes of this kind were discovered and must always reappear.

    J.R.R. Tolkien

    Indeed it might be a basic characteristic of existence that those who would know it completely would perish, in which case the strength of a spirit should be measured according to how much of the “truth” one could still barely endure-or to put it more clearly, to what degree one would require it to be thinned down, shrouded, sweetened, blunted, falsified.
    Nietzsche

    To God everything is beautiful, good, and just; humans, however, think some things are unjust and others just.
    Heraclitus
