Loreena McKennitt - On A Bright May Morning Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • As I roved out on a bright May morning
  • To view the meadows and flowers gay
  • Whom should I spy but my own true lover
  • As she sat under yon willow tree
  • I took off my hat and I did salute her
  • I did salute her most courageously
  • When she turned around well the tears fell from her
  • Sayin' False young man, you have deluded me
  • A diamond ring I owned I gave you
  • A diamond ring to wear on your right hand
  • But the vows you made, love, you went and broke them
  • And married the lassie that had the land"
  • "If I'd married the lassie that had the land, my love,
  • It's that I'll rue till the day I die
  • When misfortune falls sure no man can shun it
  • I was blindfolded I'll ne'er deny"
  • Now at nights when I got to my bed of slumber
  • My thoughts of my true love run in my mind
  • When I turned around to embrace my darling
  • Instead of gold sure it's brass I find
  • And I wish the Queen would call home her army
  • From the West Indies, Amerikay and Spain
  • And every man to his wedded woman
  • In hopes that you and I will meet again.
