intro
Who are you, me pretty fair maid
And who are you, me honey?
Who are you, me pretty fair maid
And who are you, me honey?
She answered me quite modesty

Di-re fol-for-de-Dai-rie oh
Will you come to me mother's house
When the moon is shining clearly
And will you come to me mother's house
When the moon is shining clearly
I'll open thе door and I'll let you in
And divil 'o one would hear us. (Wis mе

Pont 1 repeat 2x
She took me horse by the bridle and the bit
And she led him to the stable
She took me horse by the bridle and the bit
And she led him to the stable
Saying "There's plenty of oats for a soldier's horse
To eat it if he's able." (Wis me
too-re-ayy Fol-de-diddle-day
Di-re fol-for-de-Dai-rie oh
Pont 2 repeat 2x
She took me by the lily-white hand
And she led me to the table
She took me by the lily-white hand
And she led me to the table Saying:
There's plenty of wine for a soldier boy
To drink it if you're able. (Wis me
too-re-ayy Fol-de-diddle-day
Di-re fol-for-de-Dai-rie oh
Then I got up and made the bed
And I made it nice and aisy
Then I got up and made the bed
And I made it nice and aisy
Then I got up and laid her down
Saying: Lassie, are you able? (Wis me
too-re-ayy Fol-de-diddle-day
Di-re fol-for-de-Dai-rie oh
Pont 3 repeat 2x
There we lay till the break of day
And divil a one did hear us
And there we lay till the break of day
And divil a one did hear us
Then I arose and put on me clothes
Saying: Lassie, I must leave you. (Wis me
too-re-ayy Fol-de-diddle-day
Di-re fol-for-de-Dai-rie oh
When will you return again
And when will we get married
When will you return again
And when will we get married
When broken shells make Christmas bells
We might well get married. (Wis me
too-re-ayy Fol-de-diddle-day
Di-re fol-for-de-Dai-rie oh
