My young love said to me 'My mother won't mind |
| [01:38.11] |
And my father won't slight you for your lack of kine' |
| [01:49.29] |
And she stepped away from me and this she did say: |
| [01:59.97] |
'It will not be long, love, till our wedding day' |
| [02:11.25] |
|
| [02:11.50] |
She stepped away from me, and she moved through the fair, |
| [02:23.41] |
And fondly I watched her move here and move there. |
| [02:34.75] |
And she turned her way homeward with one star awake, |
| [02:45.91] |
As the swan in the evening moves over the lake. |
| [03:42.01] |
|
| [03:42.26] |
The people were saying, 'no two e'er were wed' |
| [03:53.99] |
But one had a sorrow that never was said. |
| [04:04.79] |
And she smiled as she passed me with her goods and her gear, |
| [04:15.41] |
And that was the last that I saw of my dear. |
| [04:26.06] |
|
| [04:26.31] |
Last night she came to me, my true love came in, |
| [04:37.71] |
And she came in so easy her feet made no din. |
| [04:49.06] |
As she laid her hands on me and this she did say: |
| [04:59.43] |
'It will not be long love, 'till our wedding day' |
| [05:59.79] |
|
| [06:00.04] |
No, it won't be long my love |
| [06:11.21] |
No, it won't be long my love |
| [06:22.03] |
No, it won't be long my love |
