She Moved Through the Fair Songtext
von Sophie Janna

My young love said to me
My mother won′t mind
And my father won't slight you
For your lack of kine
And she laid her hand on me
And this she did say
Oh it will not be long love ′till our wedding day


And she went away from me
She moved over the fair
And fondly I watched her
Move here and move there
And then she went homeward
Just one star awake
Like the swan in the evening
Moves over the lake

Last night she came to me
My dead love came in
So softly she came
That her feet made no din
And she laid her hand on me
And this she did say
Oh it will not be long love 'till our wedding day
