Original text and translations
Text English
- I dream of Jeanie with the light brown hair
- Come like a vapour on the summer air
- I see her tripping where the bright streams play
- happy as the daisies that dance on her way
- Many were the blithe birds that warbled them o'er
- I dream of Jeanie with the light brown hair
- floating like a vapour on the soft summer air.
- Do do do etc.
- I long for Jeanie with the day dawn smile,
- radient with gladness, warm with winning guile.
- I hear her melodies like joy gone by
- sighing round my heart o'er the fond hopes that die.
- Sighing like the night wind and sobbing like the rain,
- waiting for the lost one that comes not again.
- I long for Jeanie and my heart bows low
- never more to find her where the bright waters flow.
- Do do do etc.
