| «Here's a letter to you, Madam |
| Here’s a letter to you, Madam |
| Here is a letter from the Earl of the Weymss |
| And all in suit of you, Madam.» |
| «Say not so to me, Richard |
| Say not so to me, Richard |
| For I made a vow and I’ll keep it true |
| To marry none but you, Richard.» |
| «Say not so to me, Madam |
| Say not so to me, Madam |
| For I have neither lands nor rents |
| For to maintain ye with, Madam.» |
| «Now I am going away, Madam |
| I am going away, Madam |
| I’m going away to London town |
| My friends they long to see me, Madam.» |
| «Then I will come with you, Richard |
| I will come with you, Richard |
| I’ll leave my castle and my land |
| I’m coming away with you, Richard.» |
| As they came down through London town |
| Oh but the bells they were ringing bonny |
| And many a knight and many a squire |
| Stood there to welcome Richard’s lady |
| «So dearly as you loved me, Madam |
| So dearly as you loved me, Madam |
| You left your lands and all your rents |
| Your serving boy to go with, Madam.» |
| «For since it’s so I love you, Madam |
| Since it’s so I love you, Madam |
| I left the sceptre and the throne |
| And was your serving man, Madam.» |
| «And was your serving man, Madam |
| Made all your bridles ring, Madam |
| But little did you know that your serving man |
| Was England’s royal king, Madam.» |
| «And since it’s so you love me, Madam |
| Since it’s so I love you, Madam |
| You shall be the queen of all England |
| And happy shall you be, Madam.» |
