English text
I once had a true love and I loved her so well
I loved her far better than my tongue can tell.
Her parents disliked me for my want of years
So adieu to all pleasure since I lost my dear.
Then according to promise at midnight I arose
and found nothing there but the downfolded clothes
the sheets they were empty, as plain as you see
and out of the window with another went she.
Or if I was an eagle and had two wings to fly,
I would fly to my love’s castle and it’s there I would lie,
in a bed of green ivy I would leave myself down
with my two folded wings I would my love surround.
Then I dreamt last night that my true love came in
and she walked up so soft that her feet made no din
and I dreamt that she whispered to me and did say:
“It will not be long, love, ‘til our wedding day”.
