Bilingual
I peeped in to say good night
And i heard my child in prayer
"Ooh for me star scarlet ribbon
Scarlet ribbons for my hair"
ย
All the stores were closed and shuttered
All the streets were dark and bare
In my town no scarlet ribbons
Not one ribbon for her hair
ย
Through the night my heart was aching
Just before the dawn was breaking
I peeped in and on her bed
In gay profusion lying there
ย
Lovely ribbons, scarlet ribbons
Scarlet ribbons for her hair
If i live to be a hundred
I shall never know from where
Came those lovely scarlet ribbons
Scarlet ribbons for her hair
