When a man's in love he feels no cold, like me not long ago, Like a hero bold, to see his girl, he'll plough through frost and snow. The moon she gently shed her light along my dreary way, Until I came to that sweet spot where all my treasure lay.
I knocked at my love's window, saying, “Me dear, are you within?” And softly she undid the latch, and slyly I slipped in. Her hand was soft and her breath was sweet, her tongue did gently glide, I stole a kiss, it was no miss, and I asked her to be my bride.
“And take me to your chamber, love, take me to your bed, Take me to your chamber, love, to rest my weary head.” “To take you to my chamber, love, my parents they won't agree, But sit you down by yon bright fire and I will sit close by thee.”
“Many is the time I courted you against your father's will, But you never once said that you would be my bride, so now my dear, sit still, Tonight I am going to cross the sea, to far Columbia's shore, And you will never never see your youthful lover more.
“Many is the dark and stormy night I came to visit you Whether tossed about by cold winter winds, or wet by the morning dew. Tonight our courtship is at an end between my love and me, So fare you well, my favourite girl, a long farewell to thee.”
“And are you going to leave me now? Pray, what can I do? I would break through every bond of love to go along with you. Perhaps my parents won't forget, but maybe they'll forgive For from this hour I am resolved along with you to live.”
And then with a kiss the ring was closed, the wedding it's come on, From courtship's cares they are released, these two were joined in one.
