One morn in May when fields were gay, Serene and pleasant was the weather, I spied a lass and a very bonny lass, She was sweeping the dew from among the heather Down the moor.
In among the heather, O'er the moor, through the heather I spied a lass and a very bonny lass She was sweeping the dew from among the heather Down the moor.
Barefooted was she, she was comely dressed And her head bore neither hat nor feather, She'd a plaid wrapped neatly round her waist As she tripped through the blooming heather Down the moor.
In among the heather, O'er the moor, through the heather She'd a plaid wrapped neatly round her waist As she tripped through the blooming heather Down the moor.
I stepped up to this fair young maid, “Tell your name, come tell me hither.” She answered me, “Down by the bonny burnside I am herding all my ewes together Down the moor.”
In among the heather, O'er the moor, through the heather She answered me, “Down by the bonny burn side I am herding all my ewes together Down the moor.”
I courted her that live-long day, My heart as light as any feather, Until the beams of the red-setting sun Come a-shining down in among the heather Down the moor.
In among the heather, O'er the moor, through the heather Until the beams of the red-setting sun Come a-shining down in among the heather Down the moor.
She said “Young man, I must away, My ewes are straying from each other. But I'm as loath for to part with you As the bonnie wee lambs to part their mother Down the moor.
In among the heather, O'er the moor, through the heather But I'm as loath for to part with you As the bonnie wee lambs to part their mother Down the moor”
So up she got and away she went, And her name and place I cannot gather. But if I was a king I would make her a queen, The bonnie lass I met in among the heather Down the moor.
In among the heather, O'er the moor, through the heather But if I was a king I would make her a queen, The bonnie lass I met in among the heather Down the moor.Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
