As I Roved Out |
And who are you, me pretty fair maid |
And who are you, me honey? |
And who are you, me pretty fair maid |
And who are you, me honey? |
She answered me quite modestly |
«i am me mother’s darling.» |
With me too-ry-ay |
Fol-de-diddle-day |
Di-re fol-de-diddle |
Dai-rie oh |
And will you come to me mother’s house |
When the sun is shining clearly |
And will you come to me mother s house |
When the sun is shining clearly |
I’ll open the door and i’ll let you in |
And divil 'o one would hear us |
With me too-ry-ay |
Fol-de-diddle-day |
Di-re fol-de-diddle |
Dai-rie oh |
So i went to her house in the middle of the night |
When the moon was shining clearly |
So i went to her house in the middle of the night |
When the moon was shining clearly |
Shc opened the door and she let me in |
And divil the one did hear us |
With me too-ry-ay |
Fol-de-diddle-day |
Di-re fol-de-diddle |
Dai-rie oh |
She took me horse by the bridle and the bit |
And she led him to the stable |
She took me horse by the bridle and the bit |
And she let him to the stable |
Saying «there's plenty of oats for a soldier’s horse |
To eat it if he’s able.» |
With me too-ry-ay |
Fol-de-diddle-day |
Di-re fol-de-diddle |
Dai-rie oh |
Then she took me by the lily-white hand |
And she led me to the table |
Then she took me by the lily-white hand |
And she led me to the table |
Saying «there's plenty of wine for a soldier boy |
To drink it if you’re able.» |
With me too-ry-ay |
Fol-de-diddle-day |
Di-re fol-de-diddle |
Dai-rie oh |
Then i got up and made the bed |
And i made it nice and aisy |
Then i got up and made the bed |
And made nice and aisy |
Then i got up and laid her down |
Saying «lassie, are you able?» |
With me too-ry-ay |
Fol-de-diddle-day |
Di-re fol-de-diddle |
Dai-rie oh |
Oh and there we lay till the break of the day |
And divil a one did hear us |
There we lay till the break of the day |
And the divil one did hear us |
Then i arose and put on me clothes |
Saying «lassie, i must leave you.» |
With me too-ry-ay |
Fol-de-diddle-day |
Di-re fol-de-diddle |
Dai-rie oh |
And she, when will you return again |
And when will we get married |
When will you return again |
And when will we get married |
When broken shells make christmas bells |
We might well get married |
With me too-ry-ay |
Fol-de-diddle-day |
Di-re fol-de-diddle |
Dai-rie oh |
