I Loved A Lass |
Oh, I loved a lass, and I loved her so well |
That I hated all others who of her spoke ill |
But this she rewarded me well for my love |
She’s a-gone to be bride to another |
When I saw her my love to who the church go |
With a bride and bride maidens she made a fine show |
I followed her around with a heart full of woe |
She’s a-gone to be bride to another |
When I saw my love sit down to dine |
I sat down besid her to pour out the wine |
I drank to th lassie that should have been mine |
She’s a-gone to be bride to another |
And the men in the forest they ask it of me |
Saying «How many strawberries grow in the salt sea?» |
I answered them back with a tear in my eye |
«How many ships sail in the forest?» |
