My young love said to me,"My Mother won't mind
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"
She stepped away from me and she moved through the fair
And fondly I watched her move here and move there
And she turned her way homeward with one star awake
As the swan in the evening move over the lake
The people were saying, "no two e'er were wed"
