Belle Isle |
| One evening for pleasure I rambled to view |
| The fair fields all alone |
| Down by the banks of Loch Eiron |
| Where beauty and pleasure were known. |
| I spied a fair maid at her labour |
| Which caused me to stay for a while |
| And I thought of a goddess to beauty |
| Bloomin' bright star of Bright Isle. |
| I humbled myself to her beauty |
| «Fair maiden, where do you belong? |
| Are you from heaven descended |
| Abiding in Cupid’s fair throne ?». |
| «Young man, I will tell you a secret |
| It’s true I’m a maid that is poor |
| And to part from my vows and my promise |
| Is more than my heart can endure. |
| Therefore I remain at my service |
| And go through all my hardship and toil |
| And wait for the lad that has left me All alone on the banks of Belle Isle". |
| «Young maiden I wish not to banter |
| It’s true I come here in disguise |
| I came here to fulfill our last promise |
| And hope to give you a surprise. |
| I’ve known you’re a maid I love dearly |
| And you’ve been in my heart all the while |
| For me there is no other damsel |
| Than my bloomin' bright star of Belle Isle". |
