My young love said to me, "My mother won't mind
C D G D
And my father won't slight you for your lack of kind"

And she stepped away from me and this she did say

"It will not be long, love, till our wedding day"

And she turned her way homeward with one star awake
G D C D
As the swan in the evening moves over the lake
