Said I my pretty fair maid
Your beauty does me start
While Cupid like a daring flame
At me be shot a dart.
And if you would remain a while
To I'd my mind disclose
I'v hopes you'd come along with me
From the shades of Ankel grove
The evening is drawing nigh
And my parents are watching me
And homewards I must hie.
But on some other evening
When I'll have more time
We'll take a walk and we will talk of love along by the New Line.
The evening close were gathering
And the winds began to moan.
We both shook hands and parted
And I returned home. - You are not logged in, but you are welcome to contribute a transcription anonymously.
