Down by the Sally Gardens
Lyricist:W. B. Yeats, 1889. Composer:Maids of the Mourne Shore, Trad.
Down by the Sally Gardens my love and I did meet She passed the Sally Gardens with little snow-white feet She bid me take love easy as the leaves grow on the tree But time being young and foolish with her did not agree In a field by the river my love and I did stand And on my leaning shoulder she laid her snow-white hand She bid me take life easy as the grass grows on the weirs But time was young and foolish and now I am full of tears
Down by the Sally Gardens, my love and I did meet She passed the Sally Gardens with little snow-white feet She bid me take love easy as the leaves grow on the tree But time being young and foolish with her wouldn't agree
