Who are you, me pretty fair maid,
and who are you me honey,
who are you, me pretty fair maid,
and who are you me honey,
she answered me right modestly,
oh I am me mother’s darling
with me toori-a-fol-de diddle-da,
Diry–fol-de-diddle-day-re-o!
And will you come to me mothers house,
when the moon is shining clearly,
oh, and will you come to me mothers house,
when the moon is shining clearly.
I’ll open the door and I’ll let you in,
and devil the one will hear us.
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.
She opened the door and she let me in
and devil the one did hear us.
She took me by the lily-white hand
and led me to the table.
Oh, she took me by the lily-white hand
and led me to the table
saying there’s plenty of wine for a soldier boy
so drink it of you’re able.
Well I got up and I made the bed,
and I made it nice and easy.
Oh, well I got up and I made the bed,
and I made it nice and easy.
Then I got up and I laid her down,
saying lassie are you able.
There we lay till the break of the day,
and devil the one did hear us.
Oh and there we lay till the break of the day,
and devil the one did hear us.
Then I arose and put on me clothes,
saying lassie I must leave you.
When will you return again,
and when will we get married,
oh and when will you return again
and when will we get married.
When broken shells make christmas bells,
we might well get married.
