letra de a fair young maid in her father's garden - george hanna & sarah anne o'neill
standing in yon flowery garden
a handsome young man he passed me by
he passed me by and he seemed to know me
and he said, “fair maid, would you fancy i?”
“fancy you sir, a man of honour?
for a man of honour you seem to be
and what am i but a serving girl, sir
and a serving girl i intend to be.”
“for it’s seven years since i had a sweetheart
and it’s six of them since i did him see
and it’s seven more i will wait upon him
and if he’s alive, he’ll return to me.”
“if it’s seven years since you had a sweetheart
and it’s six of them since you did him
perhaps this young man is dead or marriеd
this young man’s face you might never see.”
“wеll if he’s married, i wish him plenty
and if he’s dead may god grant him rest
but if he’s alive, and he’s a single sailor
sure he’s the young man i love the best.”
he put his hand into his pocket
and his lily-white fingers were thin and small
and out between them brought a guinea-gold ring sure
and when she saw it she down did fall
he lifted her up in to his arms
and he gave her kisses most tenderly
saying, “i’m your willie, i’m your single sailor
and i’ve come from sea to wed none but you.”
“if you’re my willie and my single sailor
your face and features seem strange to me
but seven years makes an alteration
with the raging seas between you and me.”
