-'''1.'''
-Down by the sally gardens
-My love and I did meet;
-She passed the salley gardens
-With little snow-white feet.
-She bid me take love easy,
-As the leaves grow on the tree;
-But I, being young and foolish,
-With her would not agree.
-'''2.'''
-In a field by the river
-My love and I did stand,
-And on my leaning shoulder
-She laid her snow-white hand.
-She bid me take life easy,
-As the grass grows on the weirs;
-But I was young and foolish,
-And now am full of tears.
