"Silver Dagger", with variants such as "Katy Dear", "Molly Dear", "The Green Fields and Meadows", "Awake, Awake, Ye Drowsy Sleepers" and others (Laws M4 & G21, Roud 2260 & 2261), is an American folk ballad, whose origins lie possibly in Britain. These songs of different titles are closely related, and two strands in particular became popular in commercial Country music and Folk music recordings of the twentieth century: the "Silver Dagger" version popularised by Joan Baez, and the "Katy Dear" versions popularised by close harmony brother duets such as The Callahan Brothers, The Blue Sky Boys and The Louvin Brothers.

  • Silver Dagger est une ballade folk américaine datant peut-être de la fin du XIXe siècle. Elle est également connue sous d'autres titres, comme Katy Dear, Oh Molly Dear ou Awake, Awake, Ye Drowsy Sleepers, avec des variations dans les paroles. La chanson raconte l'histoire d'une jeune fille dont les parents refusent qu'elle épouse l'homme qu'elle aime. Le « poignard en argent » du titre est, selon les versions, soit l'arme dont sa mère est prête à se servir pour tuer ses soupirants, soit celle dont se servent les deux jeunes gens pour être réunis dans la mort.
