| Oh, Napoleon Bonaparte, you’re the cause of my woe
|
| Since my bonny light horseman to the wars he did go
|
| Broken hearted I’ll wander, broken hearted I’ll remain
|
| Since my bonny light horseman in the wars he was slain
|
| When Boney commanded his armies to stand
|
| And proud lift his banners all gayly and grand
|
| He levelled his cannons right over the plain
|
| And my bonny light horseman in the wars he was slain
|
| Oh, Napoleon Bonaparte, you’re the cause of my woe
|
| Since my bonny light horseman to the wars he did go
|
| Broken hearted I’ll wander, broken hearted I’ll remain
|
| Since my bonny light horseman in the wars he was slain
|
| And if I was some small bird and had wings and could fly
|
| I would fly over the salt sea where my true love does lie
|
| Three years and six months now, since he left this bright shore
|
| Oh, my bonny light horseman will I never see you more?
|
| Oh, Napoleon Bonaparte, you’re the cause of my woe
|
| Since my bonny light horseman to the wars he did go
|
| Broken hearted I’ll wander, broken hearted I’ll remain
|
| Since my bonny light horseman in the wars he was slain
|
| And the dove she laments for her mate as she flies
|
| «Oh, where, tell me where is my true love?"she sighs
|
| «And where in this wide world is there one to compare
|
| With my bonny light horseman who was killed in the war?»
|
| Oh, Napoleon Bonaparte, you’re the cause of my woe
|
| Since my bonny light horseman to the wars he did go
|
| Broken hearted I’ll wander, broken hearted I’ll remain
|
| Since my bonny light horseman in the wars he was slain |
